[QUOTE="Wayne, post: 290899, member: 24072"] [b]TMG The Master Genealogists ver 6.12[/b] I use this program because of its extensive ability in documenting sources etc. I have over 25 years of research on 11,900 family members from 1675-today already researched and documented. Since I am in the middle of editing a Family Genealogy for publication I won't switch to the (2) only Genealogy programs for MAC, which fail to support extensive documentation and exyensively configurable reporting options. Both MAC native programs including Reunion which I purchased with my Macbook Pro are not family centered programs but are focussed on individuals which defeats the entire purpose of documenting a Genealogy of a family. Additionally I share / exchange data with a network of researchers who all share this program. GEDCOM information between differing Genealogy programs fails to transmit all data from program to program. I realize this is a problem with individual programers interpretation of the GEDCOM standard but that is why I switched to a Macbook so that I could retain these 2 powerful Genealogy tools necessary for my continued research. I have tried all other WIN/MAC Genealogy programs. In fact at last check I had 6 different Genealogy programs on both my WIN based computers. I use them to share data with other users, and to prevent bad data from entering my extensive databases. A real problem with the proliferation of online Genealogy data. The LDS Church are a great resource, but far from the only Genealogists in the U.S. or World for that matter. Last time I checked the web Genealogy was the number #1 hit for webpages. Wayne [/QUOTE]
