Dawn, Given the information you have shared, it might be that what you want to do is better handled by Legacy's TAGGING feature. I don't remember how much "tagging" is covered in free Legacy's help file, but you might want to take a read there. Colors can be "set" over and over again as you move people around in your ancestor tree. --Paula

I've narrowed down to these 2 software programs and both have great features. I think it's coming down to the coloring features. TMG has a slew of colors to choose from, for however you wanted to setup your lines, such as, non-related lines with same name, unknown lineages, adopted lines, lines from Europe, etc etc. In Legacy, I’m not fully understanding the coloring system. It seems line I can only do two color scheme in each project. I have one project with seven different lines of the same name. I don’t want to make 7 projects because a lot of the people are in the wrong lines and I need to switch over into correct colored line. Also I have only the standard Legacy, I haven’t bought the deluxe, so maybe you can do this but only in the deluxe level? II read that Legacy is working with TMG to do a transfer file, will the color system be worked in, to be brought over? Or has any TMG switched and found the color coding to be okay. I would hate to do this and find my coloring system gone.
