It has been awhile since I wrote this. I have accepted FTM doesn't get it either and never will. 1.) "if your places are in perfect FTM format" ....I don't like the FTM format....I want United States, not USA. I want names spelled out, not abbreviated; I have been burned too many times. Plus I am getting to the point, I want historical names...names associated with a time, not today's places. I want to order by date. Yesterday's map, if you will. 2.) The duplicating place names in the country irritates me even more. Morale of Story: Collect with FTM and story Legacy/Gramps/Roots Magic FTM is a collector of off Ancestry...but in terms of reports etc....the other software leave FTM in the dust and it is sad as FTM has so much potential.
