Hi, I also use PAF, but I have been doing my Family Trees in Excel. It takes a little time, depending on how large you make it, but it's a great way to see the tree. I like to do one for each of the lines I am following .. some of them get quite large, but Excel handles it well and it can be printed out. You can also add photos, etc, and do color for each family line. If you would like a small example of how it looks, email off list and I can send you one!

I'm interested in putting the following lines together on one chart, and hope that the following illustrates what I would like to do. William Price = Margaret Harris Robert Evans (1784-1863) = Margaret Morris (1781-bef 1851) These couples are the beginning ancestors and should include their other children as well as .

I'd also like to know if anyone can recommend a family tree program that has a good report/register writing capability. I know I must be incorrectly using PAF because every time I make a change to a register, or create a new register, I have to reformat the report before I print it. I wrap text in the notes area but it always prints out with most lines having hard returns and therefore requiring major editing. Thanks for any assistance on the charting and family tree recommended programs to replace PAF. I hope this message makes sense!
