Rating: - This Item Is Useless
I bought Family Tree Maker delux edition thinking it would be an improvement on the FREE disc I received with The Sunday Times how wrong was I .It does not do as it says in nearly all areas. Wish to print The Whole of your tree -- forget it ,only one individuals.

So all in all a useless piece of software. My freebie was superb IS superb,Save your money buy an earlier edition 2006 or earlier

The downright ugly is the "manual" that is provided with the software. The square root of useless comes ... Read More
