I use FTM and Legacy. I do my
searching and merging with FTM and then I create small gedcoms and merge them
into Legacy to update that specific information. I definitely prefer
Legacy for it’s overall editing ability, it has a lot more features than
FTM. Oh, the Deluxe edition does have a search feature but I haven’t
had a chance to explore how it works yet. Jan From:

[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Melanie Hi, I used to use Family Tree
Maker (FTM) but switched for many reasons. What I did like about FTM was
searching for sources online (specifically ancestry.com) then being able to
merge that info (census record, birth or death record, etc) right into my
family tree. I could merge the individual and if it listed family members then
I could merge them as well. I haven’t been able to locate the same tool
with Legacy. I am really liking Legacy but there is so much to learn! Does
Legacy Deluxe Edition have a search option similar to what I was using with
FTM? Since FTM is the preferred software that ancestry.com promotes I assume
that means you can only merge sources if you use FTM? Anyone else used FTM? I
was thinking, maybe I’ll use FTM, merge the sources, create a gedcom,
import gedcom to legacy, but too many steps! Any help greatly appreciated!
