Before I go and spend my hard earned money (well, my husbands anyway) Can you all tell me which family tree programme you use and why? |

I use Family Tree Maker, it is very easy to use and has excellent help and support if you get stuck. |

Well, this question comes up almost daily :) If you enter something like family tree software into a search it should bring up dozens of threads for you to read. |

Sue mentioned PAF from Family Search, it is free as she said and a good start. we used it for a long time with good results and it is fully Gedcom compliant. there is very little to complain about but is not very good with photographs. |

If you decide to buy Family Tree 2008 in New Zealand check the back of the box re free subscription before you buy. I'm in Canada and after I bought the programme realized that the free subscription was for Canada only. As I was only interested in a U.K. subscription I contacted Ancestry before opening the package and they agreed to give me a free U.K. subscription. |
