#Family Tree Maker
4 messages in this thread
Does any one know of a downloadable program I can download to draw a family
tree? It must be capable of showing full name, birth and death date, and any
special info I would like to include.

I just d/l'ed AFT.LHA the other day. It's VERY simple, but usable. If
you want a good commercial one, I'd suggest Your Family Tree by MVP
Software.
Stay cool B-)

Just a note after using YFT for a while. This program is not BUG free and
the printing capabilities are pretty awful (I have to change both printer
and PREFS to get the proper output as an example). The ISAM encoding
sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. I'm using YFT 2. I don't think
there is a way to output your files in the standard form (either the
Mormon or European standards). And the interface is pretty junky (of
course interface "junkiness" is always an opinion). There are several
other Genealogical tools available on the Amiga, you might check into one
of these before committing to YFT.

There are two or three genealogy programs in the libraries. The one I
have liked best was AFT.LHA. I find it to be fairly complete, easy to
use. It has GEDCOM so you can exchange data with other programs, and it
provides the ability to document your sources – extremely important!
Also, it has AREXX. And its author, Andrew Hounsell, is a member of this
forum.
