The following features are available only through Ancestral Quest. You can't get these with PAF 5, even when supplemented by PAFWiz:
- NetFam Collaboration. Exclusive to AQ! Work together with others on a single file. Eliminate the effort of GEDCOM and Match/Merge to coordinate efforts.
- To Do/Research items and Research Log. Organize your research efforts and print out lists of tasks before research trips, organized by location or sorted by other fields. Keep a record of dead-ends as well as successful searches.
- Spell-Check Notes
- Re-use source citations for as many events and records as needed. The citation will appear only once in the list of sources on a report, with the same footnote number used wherever it was cited.
- Attach source/citations to just a date or a place for more accurate documentation.
- Use the simplified notes/sources screen of AQ. You'll realize how much more quickly and efficiently you can document your genealogy.
