Family Tree Maker SIG Monthly Meeting
Generally held on the 3rd Tuesday of the month, our SIG meeting is via Zoom.
Switching things up a bit, our SIG will be focusing on working through each of the Workspaces in the FTM program starting with the Plan workspace. We will click on everything and explore how each item on our screen works. Over the next months, all of the workspaces will be explored in depth. There will also be time to discuss any question you might have about a specific problem using FTM. Looking forward to our next get together.
