I VERY MUCH ENJOYED your article on family ancestral research ("Family Ties," January '96, page 127). However, in the discussion of Personal Ancestral File, you referred to the church that makes the software as the Church of Latter Day Saints. For the record, the name of the church is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
Thanks for making such great information available month after month.

THERE WERE A FEW errors in your coverage of MacRoots II. The comment that "you have to use a scroll bar to move between generations in the lineage window" is incorrect. The scroll bar allows you to page through individual records one at a time. If you want to move through generations, you simply click on individuals' names.
Your statement that double-clicking on a person prompts a remove message is also inaccurate. There is no place where double clicking actually prompts the removal of a person.
Finally, the number for ordering MacRoots is 601-255-8677. The number that you printed is the support number.
