I agree with Chuck about the power of TMG but I tried it recently (free 30 day trial of the latest version) and it must have the poorest windows interface I have ever seen. Even junk programs have better interfaces. A real disappointment and the reason I have not bothered to convert.

I would suggest anyone interested in it download and try it first. WQhile it does have great genealogy features, its windows features are awful.

that<br>offer and now use TMG. TMG is now selling v.5.14, and<br>it does everything UFT did, and more.
