Thanks Mandy and Heather, Have sent you both a pm. Elaine

Elaine, if you send me your email addy, Ill send my website to you to have a look. Its a bit like a kids school project but its mainly for my use, so I dont really care! Its very easy to update, you go to Internet at the top of your ft program, click on update my home page and that is it! It is in sort of book form, a page for each individual and photos/images can be loaded onto your first into page and on to an individuals page. Pm me and Ill let you have a look at mine.

Elaine It's very easy to do, step by step, and there's a menu selection on FTM to update your internet page. You're welcome to have a look at mine if you like (although I must admit, I haven't updated it lately ...perhaps I'll just quickly do that now lol!). Just let me know and I'll send you the URL. Mandy :)

Heather - supposing I just upload my tree, in what sort of format is the information shown - ? as an actual tree - or in report format. Is it easy to update?

Elaine, when I did mine it seemed to be only available to me/to those I had sent the addy for a couple of months then google picked up its url. You can privatise living people and I you can edit the site as much as you want. I dont know if many people actually find it, you would have to do a google search with names on it I guess. I know a couple of people have contacted me through finding it on the net.

Am thinking of creating a home page from Family Tree Maker 2005. Can anyone tell me if this would then mean that anyone could access my tree, or would the link (web address) only been known by me.
