	I've just been looking up this programme and I may be being a bit stupid here: I can see that it connects better with Ancestry, but what if someone doesn't want to do any online research? Can they use FTM just for storage of information known to date? I have been asked this question by a relative who is new to research but who wants to keep his tree off the world wide web. Thank-you!
