Could someone please tell me, which of the FTM's programs is the best to buy? Do you have to start with the beginners program? Thank you. Rhoda Turner

I would start with the newest version which I think is 8.0. I am not a computer person and found it very easy to learn. You just start typing in your names and away you go. Be sure to add you sources as you go. I thought it would be easier to go back and do it all at once. It isn't and now I am confused. But this is not FTM's fault. I have used two other programs and keep coming back to it.

If you have an older computer, say with a 486, or an 80 to 100mHz processor, rev 8 may be awfully slow to run. Consider upgrading your computer, or see if you can find a copy of rev 5 or 6, which will produce files you can later move up to rev 8. I have a 100 mHz processor, and have rev7 but have not installed it because it requires a faster processor. Still going fine with rev 5 FTM, although I don't have all the bells and whistles. Bill
