It looks like you can print notes using the batch print method. It's not as simple as it should be, but I think that it'd work.

Since I was asked, I'm going to post a brief review of it. I've only played with it an hour or so at this point, so these are early observations. I am not affiliated with MyFamily.com, Inc, and I have nothing to gain by the following observations. The new user interface is much more professional looking. It looks like FTM has finally left the DOS world and become a real Windows application. The family pages are laid out better, and the gray color scheme looks better to me than the pale yellow that they've used for so long. IF you have an account with ancestry.com, you can now search their web databases from FTM. There's a web search button for each person in the family page view as well as the new pedigree chart view. This new search feature will search the ancestry.com databasea and then allow ou to directly merge the information into your database. The family page view now shows 8 children at a time, and includes their name, sex, birth date and place, and death date and place so you can now edit more information about a child without having to change to that child's family view. The Spouse and Scrapbook links for a person in the family view now has a number next to it that tells you how many spouses or scrapbook items they have (if there are more than one of each). The family page also lists the names of the parents of each person in a clickable buton above their names. FTM now has bookmarks. You can add a book mark for people in your database that you view often, just like a bookmark in a web browser. However, you can't bookmark things like reports or graphs. When you use one of the web-enable functions, it now works better with your default browser instead of forcingyou to use Internet Explorer. I use Mozilla, and it will happily pop up Mozilla for me. The biggest negative that I've found so far is that burial date and place are no longer listed on the family page. You can still add that information in the "Edit Individual" window, but I liked it in the family page. _\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_ | Roger L.

I received my version of FTM 2005 yesterday. One of the major faults I am having is that you cannot print from the Facts Page or the Notes page. You have to cut and paste from the Notes page, and you are out of luck from the Facts page. I used the facts page as a reference when doing a narrative page in a book I am putting together, and can no longer print it out to see as I work. As with anything new, you have to adjust to the changes....good luck. Alice Nicholson in Phoenix ----- Original Message ----- From: "Roger L.

The Kentucky families include Heflin, Tinsley, Peeple, Wyatt, Harper, Frick, Mathis, Rives, Davis, Griffith and... This CD Book is only $47.00 and would add a lot to your family information. E-mail me at csgem31@cox.net Carrol Heflin

FTM 2005 has a TOTALLY different interface. The upgrades getween earlier versions (at least 9 through 11) were fairly minor, adding PDF support, statistics, etc. But the new 2005 versionhas a more graphical interface, a new type of pedigree display, the ability to bookmark views and an edit history. It's a much bigger deal than the previous several upgrades. They started advertising it a few days ago. I ordered it the day that they sent me the first notice, and was told yesterday that it would ship in the next couple of days. _\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_ | Roger L.

Roger, i was speaking of FTM 8.0. That is the latest version for me. I haven't seen much different in the various versions. Bob Rye

Thanks Bob, I appreciate the info! Heard from Elsie lately?? Linda Moss De Vita Researching: Moss, Blair, Martin, Young, Denny, Hutchison, Rye, Gill, Hester, Clay in TN, KY, NC.

Linda, I am using the latest version of FTM and find that it is great for entering data and moving around in the data file. I think it is very easy to use but not very good for making reports. For reports I use The Master Genealogist. TMG is much harder to learn great for reports. I used TMG for the whole book. I used FTM to keep all the data and just read the FTM files into TMG; TMG can read FTM maker files as well as its own. Then one of the innumerial report forms (or you can make your own report forms) is to read out the genealogy report in a word format with imbedded index marks. Then it was simply a question of piecing the genealogy reports togther using Word. In summary, FTM is easly the simplest and easiest to use. TMG is hard but easly the best for reports and handeling the data. Hope this helps, Bob Rye
