how to convert gedcom into HTML?

Y

Is there a simple way to use FrontPage or other office program to create a
family tree drawing out of GEDCOM file? (GEDCOM is the format used in
genealogy software).
I can also export the GEDCOM to excel, so if the answer for the above is
"no" - can I create a tree out of the excel and build web page per line of
excel, while each lin of excel incldues name, birth date, address etc.

Thanks

Gedcom is a format of a data base. There are manuy ustilities who convert to
HTML, but all of them (which I tried) have zero graphics, and are not
supportrd other languages.

Export it to Excel and then from Excel save it as a html file.

Tha's my backup plan, but it's not so easy if I want to reach the power of
frontpage.

Do a "Google" on "gedcom2html" - gives 443 hits - includes conversion
programs.

Thanks, but trust me I have been there. I tried most of these utilities and
they don't support hebrew, which I need, and these utilities are not graphic
orients, to say the least. i would like to use the power of FrontPage for
that target.
I am sure there is a "macro" way to import lines from excel and to create
page from each line using a pre-defined template
