2. [FTST] Centering Box Charts [1]
When a make an ancestor box chart in VCF, the Chart is always aligned to the left. Is there an easy way to center it? I see that under Options I can specify the distance from the left margin, but I have to do this before I see the chart. Would it not be possible to center or otherwise position the chart after it is made? Ken Wood Ottawa Canada jkwoodis@rogers.com Ken Wood Ottawa Canada jkwoodis@rogers.com

Probably because it can not write to the CD (assuming your D: drive is your CD) .. try running it from either START or from your ADD/DELETE programs. Browse for the CD and file setup.exe.

Hello Bonita. Below is the very quick reply that I received from Bob Velke. ------------------ The two file formats are not compatible. You can run both programs at the same time, however, and drag the older chart and drop it onto a blank canvas on the newer one. Then save the new chart as a VC2 and it has been converted. -Bob ------------------------------ John. ---------------------- ---------------------- ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bonita" To: Se

7. [FTST] FTST 1.1 install errors on Win XP Home [1]
Hello, I just purchased TMG 4.0 Silver and FTST 1.1. I have a Windows XP system and TMG installed fine (minor problems only); however FTST refuses to install. When I try to run D:\setup.exe from the CD-ROM, I get a dialog box stating that D:\setup.exe is not a valid Windows executable. Has anyone seen this problem, or have any ideas as to what's causing it? (or is it just me?) Thanks for any help you can offer-- --Ken Pergrem krp@attbi.com

10. [FTST] Accent Problem [1]
Thanks to Lee and Steven for responding to my problem. But you didn't solve it! The button in definition screen was on. What I figured out was that when I refreshed the dataset, my ancestor flag ( not Ances interest) which had initials of surnames that were to be accented disappeared in FTST. I checked back in TMGW and they were in the flag list with the appropriate initials, strange. I ended up finally deleting the data set and project and then imported from scratch and everything is working fine. I gues

Thanks for any help you can offer-- Although Ron O'Neil answered that he needed to get a replacement for the EXE, there isn't a general incompatibility here. FTST has been successfully installed and run on thousands of XP systems. Of course, if it turns out that the CD

20. [FTST] How many datasets? [1]
I'm thinking of trying FTST, but before I do, I need to know...is there a programmed (or practical) limit to the number of datasets or Megs of data you can have in a project? For example, I run a one-name study that has about 30 Legacy databases with a total of around 66 MB of data. It would be interesting to put all of these databases into one project so I could look for duplicates (crossovers between lines), but could FTST handle it? Would it work at all, or would it bog down, or would things go swimmingl
