Sharon, Both Legacy and TMG (The Master Genealogist) have trial versions that you can download and try. The trial versions do not have all of the available features, but you could at least give them a "test drive." I'd recommend that you do so, at least you could, for no cost, determine you don't like the programs. Jon Raymond St Paul Park, MN Web site: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~raymond/
