Here's the readme.txt:
Welcome to Family Matters(tm). If you have registered your copy of
Family Matters, you have the ability to store as many persons in as
many different files as you wish. If you have not yet registered,
the only limitation is that the sample data file is limited to 10
families.
Payment of the registration / order fee will provide you with a
User ID, Key Code, and the latest version by mail.
If you already use a genealogy program, Family Matters can import your
GEDCOM data. Whether registered or not, import as much as you like,
though the un-registered version will not allow additions once the
ten-family limit is exceeded.
Family Matters(tm) is a new Windows Genealogy program from MatterWare,
authored by Ray Nicklas, reachable at Matte...@aol.com.
Family Matters' advanced features include:
- All functions available while using FM's Family Group Form,
- Lineage-Linked Relational Database powered by the MS Jet Database
Engine,
- Several users can work on the same database at the same time,
- Drag, resize, and dock the Toolbar anywhere on the screen,
- Print Pedigree Charts, Descendancy Charts, Individual and Family Group
Reports,
- Form objects resize themselves to fit your computer's screen resolution,

INSTALLATION from MatterWare floppies. RUN the Setup program on Disk 1
from the Program Manager's FILE menu.
INSTALLATION from downloaded .zip files. Unzip the four downloaded files
into a single temporary directory; not the directory you intend to install
Family Matters into. Next, RUN the Setup program fron the FILE menu on the
Program Manager. Choose a different directory from the one in which Setup
is in.
SUPPORT. The User ID and Key Code supplied when you register will unlock
updated versions of Family Matters that you may later download. After
version 2.20,
the first download file (FMxxx1.ZIP) will contain everything you need to
upgrade.
Also, on the Internet, the Web site http://users.aol.com/matterware will
contain the
necessary replacement files, and instructions for updating. Additionally,
there is
now a Family Matters message board in the America Online Genealogy Club.
Should you decide not to purchase Family Matters, please drop me a line
and tell me what features you felt you needed, what version number you
tried,
and what caused you to choose not to purchase at this time. Please also
indicate
the relative importance of your needs.
Please read the file LICENSE.TXT for a full discussion of your use and
distribution rights. See ORDERS.TXT for registration and ordering
information. See VERSIONS.TXT for a version/release/upgrade history.
Good luck on your Ancestral Hunt.
