RootsMagic's new feature just saved me hundreds, if not thousands, of hours of tedious work. All of those menu and icon links on the RootsMagic 7 View screen, and many of the buttons on the Edit Person screen, will be in a different place now, and the process for adding or editing data will be somewhat different.
