=== GEDCOM import ===
First create a [[Gramps_5.2_Wiki_Manual_-_Manage_Family_Trees#Starting_a_new_Family_Tree|new empty Family Tree]]. Then select the menu {{man menu|Family Trees ->Import}} or the [[Gramps_5.2_Wiki_Manual_-_Keybindings#2|keybinding]] {{Man key press|CTRL|I}} then use the {{man label|[[Gramps_5.2_Wiki_Manual_-_Manage_Family_Trees#Import_Family_Tree_dialog|Import Family Tree]]}} dialog to select the GEDCOM file you want to import, depending on the the type of GEDCOM you may then see the {{man label|[[Gramps_5.2_Wiki_Manual_-_Manage_Family_Trees#GEDCOM_Encoding_dialog|GEDCOM Encoding]]}} dialog.
When you import information from GEDCOM, Gramps main window will show you a [[Gramps_5.2_Wiki_Manual_-_Main_Window#Status_Bar_and_Progress_Bar|progress bar]]. When the GEDCOM import finishes, the {{man label|[[Gramps_5.2_Wiki_Manual_-_Manage_Family_Trees#Import_Statistics_dialog|Import Statistics]]}} window and the '''{{man label|[[Gramps_5.2_Wiki_Manual_-_Manage_Family_Trees#GEDCOM_import_report_dialog|GEDCOM import report:]]}}''' windows show any results or warnings.
