All,
I understand the genealogy report card is no longer being updated.

Alvie's suggestion of PAF enables the beginner an opportunity to start
organizing without making an investment right away. However, for those of us
who are not Christians, the inability to delete certain religious event items
from the family group sheet (haven't checked recent version but assume that is
still the case), makes it inappropriate for some.

My new favorite is Roots Magic which is extremely flexible.
