Hi Linda Thanks for the advice, I was thinking about doing it the way you have, but thought it might be better on the FTM. Thanks very much, much appreciated. Regards Yvonne

Hello Yvonne - if you try clicking on 'help' within Family Tree Maker and then click on Online Help Centre you should be able to make your way to the Ancestry Family Tree Maker Forum. Its a forum that deals exclusively with FTM, I have found it very helpful. Sorry about the pun. Good luck with the book. Although I started using FTM to write a book about our family history, I gave up and now just use 'Word'. Its now about 90 pages long, includes introduction, dedication, photographs and a chapter on each generation. Have also included an Index which is a boon. Again best of luck. Linda

Hi Has anyone created a book on their family tree maker? I would like to view every page, Ive done an Introduction etc and im adding text about information on the villages that we lived in, so the text pages could be quite a few pages. Many thanks Yvonne
