Thanks Appleshaw. I'll try that also.However we have had success. Instead of clicking the option that then asks you to register we tried the option that appears to limit you to 25 names in a tree and found that worked. Thanks all for your help.

My brother is trying unsuccessfully to view them on his laptop - he gets a message saying Which program do you want to use to open... He goes to the Install program icon then and it keeps telling him to register - he clicks no and it gets into a loop he can't get out of... Help please????
That is why I suggest that it is easier to use the ordinary GenoPro.exe to act as a viewer. Copy it onto the Cg from the Program Files directory of your C: drive and it will work. Not so complete an installation but much easier for less experienced PC users. We all have some of them in our families!

I suggest that you could use Autorun feature in your CD distribution.
More Help can be had from | http://www.phdcc.com/shellrun/autorun.htm |
You can even make the program check whether GenoPro is already installed in the PC and then open your data automatically.
You can use Notepad for editing the autorun file. All the best.

Your brother needs to double-click on the file InstallGenoPro.exe before doing anything. GenoPro will install on any PC.

Sorry. Still having problems. I downloaded Install Genopro.exe, sent it across to the CD along with the various trees.My brother is trying unsuccessfully to view them on his laptop - he gets a message saying Which program do you want to use to open... He goes to the Install program icon then and it keeps telling him to register - he clicks no and it gets into a loop he can't get out of... Help please????

I think you only need GenoPro.exe (from the GenoPro2007 directory) on the Cd where it will work as a viewer.Yes indeed. Everything is in GenoPro.exe, including the reports. However the advantage of an installation is that the .gno files are associated with GenoPro The file association is done when GenoPro.exe is launched. The installation creates a shortcut in the Start menu, plus optionally a shortcut on the desktop. Also, the installation creates an entry in the control panel for uninstalling the product. The installation also includes a few sample files.

If you use the Install program then people can generate their own complete installation but might be confused by the initial screens. (these can be ignored but people might think they can not use the program)

How can I organise it that the CDs will work, without them having to download a software program? You can copy the file InstallGenoPro.exe on the CD. This file is less than 1 MB and is easy to install. This way, any user not having an internet connection will be able to open your .gno documents (family trees) and view everything, including the pictures.
