I successfully exported my tree from GR onto my new FTM but now I want to overwrite it, it seems to be going mad! Please what am I doing wrong?

Your best option is to visit the online help centre,(In FTM select help,then from the dropdown select 'online help centre') You can enter a question and print the answers,see related questions and e-mail FTM support if required. There could be one of a few things,which is why i haven't c&p the answers from the help centre. Glen

I seem to have done it now (how?) but now realise that this version is SO basic that I am no better off than I am with the PAF thing I downloaded for free from LDS! Annoyed that the box leads you to think you can make all sorts of charts but not true without buying extras! This was what I bought the b****y thing for!!!! Allie
