Thanks, Carol, but think I'll just go with the books Legacy provides, or create a book using Family Group Sheets, create my own Table of Contents, but no index...but that will take a while and a lot of effort.
What is the pre-release version? I just checked and I have the Deluxe 5.0.0.256, updated August, 2005. Is there another pay version about to be released? I haven't noticed anything in the announcement messages, unless I just overlooked them.
