    1. CFT Version 3 Beta 2
    2. Ira J. Lund
    3. I have just posted CFT Version 3 Beta 2 on my Web Site. I have greatly improved all the editing functions and added all of the Tools on the Tools Menu. Reports and Indexed Book have been outlined and you can get an idea of which reports I plan to produce in Ver 3. Only the following are left to complete: * GEDCOM Import/Export * Database Split & Merge Utilities * Backup/ Restore * All Reports (This is a big one and will take the most time) * Indexed Book * Web (HTML) output * Electronic Viewer It is still a long list with lots of new reports. Luckily, I have had some time recently to devote to Ver 3. Even if I can continue at the current pace, I still expect many months before Ver 3 is complete. I still tell people it'll be a year - but I think I have been saying that for at least a year - already. Sorry, for the bad estimate on working on this - but I am still highly interested and working on it when I can. 90% of Ver 3 has been newly reprogrammed. The internal database structure has changed so dramatically that hardly any functions from Ver 2 could be incoporated in Ver 3. The same can be said for all reports. They will all basically have to be re-programmed from scratch - thus the biggest reason for the long - 2 years or more to write this version (and that while holding another full time job, teaching early morning - 6 am -scripture study to High School students 5 days a week, and trying to make some family time for my wife and six kids)!
