The new page containing an index of Reunion 9 for Mac tutorials is now complete. You can easily reach it through this site’s menu: Mac -> Reunion.
I got a lot of feedback on the experimental index page. I carefully considered all the comments and chose to create the index for Reunion the same way I did for Family Tree Maker (PC). I’ll be doing the same for RootsMagic and Family Tree Maker for Mac 2.

Your new index for Reunion will save me lots of time and give me more confidence as I enter items on my data base,
Thank you.
Ben says
Thanks for telling me that Sheila!
Kenny Graves says
Wow! Me likes it!
Good job, Ben. Thank you.
Ben says
Yay! You’re welcome.

Thanks, Ben. I’ve entered my family info only into ancestry so far, but am now debating whether to use Reunion 9 or Family Tree Maker for Mac 2 as my programs. Your index for both look very clear, but I guess until I begin with one or the other I won’t know how really good they are. If you were a “beginner” Ben, using an iMac and entering family info into the ancestry program for many years, which program do you think you would use? I realize that either one would have to be Gedcom compatible.

Wow! What a wonderful – and thorough – job you’ve done! I can’t imagine how much time this must have taken. This is just perfect, I think. It’s like the best kind of user manual now! Thank you so much, Ben!
Ben says
Hi, Linda. Thanks for the feedback.
It took a bit longer this time because I wrote some software to make the index automatically generated using the tags I set on the articles. That way I don’t have to maintain the index by hand.

Great idea! You’ve got the smarts!
Patricia Shannon says
Ben – This is invaluable! I have often searched impatiently through many archives looking for the article that is just right for that immediate need. What a treat to have them all in this index! Thank you so much for your effort and for the clarity of your new layout for the entire website.
Ben says
You’re welcome Patricia. I’m happy it helps. —-Ben >@<

Wonderful addition to you website! It will also help me when I suggest your website to others who have a specific need that you have covered! Really like all the new things you have been adding or revising!
Ben says
I’m so glad you like it Kaye! I’m also happy it will be useful to the people you are helping.
How can we cover the needs that I haven’t already?

As someone who used to index college science textbooks for a living, this is good to see. I know how much work went into it. Thanks.
Ben says
Oh, now I find that out Joan! 😉 As a complete novice, I could use some pointers. —-Ben >@<

Thanks Ben. As a newbie ro Mac and Reunion I find the Tutorials just fine. You mention “show notes” in one of the tutorials – where might they be?
