Passage Express 2.2.01
April 5, 2006
Passage Express, a genealogy multimedia presentation application for Windows, was recently updated, to version 2.2.01. It received a “New 1-2-3 Simplified Menu”.
Basically, the steps needed to build your genealogy presentation have been simplified into three main areas:
1)Build
2)Design Menu
3)Publish
You can read about the new features here. It’s one of the areas of genealogy software that’s been neglected for a long time, and I’m glad to see that it’s coming along nicely.
