Carol, You cant beat the Family Tree Maker, I enter all my details onto it, and then print the family record groups so that I can put them in a file and look at them for easy reference. I also have all my certificates in slippery fish at the back of the file in date order for both birth and marriage certs.....But then I do not have a life apart from genealogy ....Gawd I sound like a saddo....LOL
