Family Tree Maker

Downloaded is the same as import/export. You download/export your GEDCOM or other files from another site directly to your pc (I use the desktop so I can find it). I don't know if notes/reports can be transferred from RM to FTM. Save the notes/reports and import from their location on your pc to the programme of your choice. If the notes are the ones from the notes space on the tree programme they will be transferred but may need fix-ups.

I think that I will stay with RM. I have version 2.04a at the moment and I see that the latest version is #4. I'm hoping the all notes and reports will show up in the new version. Hope I'm right?

That's the theory - I'm using RM3 at the moment and one day will upgrade to 4. From what I've been able to gather, once you start RM4 your first job will be to import an existing RM file, from any previous version.

Just went to the R.M. site ( or at least I think it was the correct site) and couldn't get an answer. Think I will stick with version 2.04a.

Thank you Wedob for the suggestion of downloading Register Reports into a RTF format. I can then make changes, add, or delete information in the Word document.
