A Great Handbook, Even for Longtime Users of the Program,
By Lora Fleming "WolfSpirit" (Wagoner, OK, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Official Guide to Family Tree Maker 2006 and Version 16 (Paperback)
I have used the Family Tree Maker software for many years... find it very user friendly, especially for newcomers to the hobby. Yet, even for an experienced researcher, it has all of the bells & whistles I need. I did not update to the 2008 version, as it was a total remake, and lacking many of the tools that I use on a regular basis.I purchased this handbook initially as a trouble shooting guide, in case I did run into a problem. However, I was happily surprised to learn about capabilities of the program that I was unaware of, in spite of having used it for such a long period of time and on a daily basis! This book is great! If you are new to genealogy and the FTM software, it will take you by the hand, and guide you through step by step on getting started. If you're an experienced researcher, it will give you tips & techniques for research you may be unaware of, or have forgotten. I highly recommend it!
