Wholly Genes Newsletter (Nov 4, 2005)
November 4, 2005
The November 4, 200th edition of the Wholly Genes Newsletter, is now available. This issue covers updates to The Master Genealogist, continuing sales on certain products (video training products, GenSmarts), and reduced staffing for the week:
This Sunday marks the beginning of the 2005 Genealogy Conference and Cruise hosted by Wholly Genes Software. For the following seven days, most of the Wholly Genes staff and about 450 of our closest friends
will be cruising the Western Caribbean, enjoying the presentations by some of the foremost genealogists in the field, and catching a few rays. During this period, the Wholly Genes office will be open during regular business hours but operating with a reduced staff. We thank you in advance for your patience. We especially appreciate the many experienced users who are always the first line of support for others on the TMG-L mailing list, the Wholly Genes support forum (http://www.whollygenes.com/forums.htm), and elsewhere. Thanks, as always, for your support of the TMG community!

The Master Genealogist v6.05 is now available from Wholly Genes, Software. The Master Genealogist (TMG) is a Windows genealogy application. Version 6.05 is free for existing customers, but it does require v6.00 of TMG. To install the update, from within TMG 6.0+, select the “Help” menu and then select “Check for an update”, or you can select the “Check for a Program Update” option from the TMG’s Start Menu grouping. The update will then install, and a restart of TMG will be required.
NEW/CHANGED
* Tag Entry - A warning now occurs if, when saving the Tag Entry screen, the style assignment for an existing place could be changed.
