    PGV is very tolerant of other software programs, using most of the well-recognized tags and some custom tags.
    Any tag beginning with an underscore _XXX  is one of these customs tags. You can very the documentation of Aldfaer to see why it creates and to what purpose it uses this tag (I can't imagine why), and you can use a text editor to convert it to a more recognized tag - BUT, that is not necessary. Simply turn off GEDCOM errors and it will go away (from display, not from your GEDCOM).
