The faults found are major and disturbing. I've been researching for over 27 years and have put my trust in FTM all these years only to have the floor pulled out from underneath me by removing the book option back in 2008. It's too late for me to go back to an older version and I'm ready (as are my relatives!!!) to publish. I don't want to publish something that will have over 10000 names which doesn't have an index!!!!

With more than 13,000 names in my data base I have no idea how to start. My book will be done for my grandchildren with family lines for both of their parents. I am concerned about a format that will: (A)allow for locating people in the book (B)encorporate my pictures (C)encorporate family stories I know nothing about MyCanvas or the desktop publisher.

Is the webinar a thinly disguised marketing ploy? Thanks. It seems that you cannot register for the webinar on using MyCanvas unless you’ve already published something using MyCanvas.
