Hello Wilmer,

> I am absolutely new to Gramps and have just downloaded the app. Before beginning, I am wondering if this app can upload Brothers Keeper files. Can anyone help me get started on bringing BK files into Gramps? Thank you!

Since Gramps can not read Brother's Keeper files, you need to create a 
GEDCOM file from your BK tree. And if you have more than one tree in BK, 
you must create GEDCOM files for all.

When you've done that, you can create a new tree in Gramps, and import 
the GEDCOM file(s) into that.

You may see errors when you do that, and they may be hard to avoid. I 
just looked at a tree that I once imported from BK 5.2, and in that, it 
seems that Gramps didn't understand page numbers found in sources.

You may see other types of errors when you work with BK 7.5.

Regards,

Enno
