I'm looking for a decent software that will accept a gedcom file from genes reunited.
Can anybody please point me in the right direction or help? I also want it to print oiut in a simalar way to genes listings.
Thanks for any help you can give as most of the family are older and don't have computers.

Most of us use family treemaker 2006 - its a tenner on twr computing including a fortnights free ancestry. You can make books, print reports and descendants/ancestry charts, back up to a cd and internet storage and have your own homepage on the internet free. You can add photos and images.

Thanks Heather and Alan for your imput.
Will try both. Others not having computers makes it difficult for them to understand.

if you get the family treemaker 2006 you can create your own website free and they could always go in a local library to view it.
