Now you are ready to start creating your first chart.
When you click the continue button you will see an input screen. This is arranged with the 'main person' in a box - by default this will be yourself - change it if necessary. Above this box is a box for the father & mother. To the right is a box for the spouse, and below are lines for the children.
Just enter whatever information you know into any of the boxes. If you click the red arrows that will appear (after an update) against known persons, that will move the person to be the 'main person'. Assuming you have entered yourself as the 'main person', and have also entered your father's name, click 'Update', then clicking on the red arrow that will appear against your father will move him to be the 'main person', so you can then enter your grandfather's details, etc.
Whenever you click the red arrows your data is saved automatically. Otherwise just click the 'Update' button to save any changes.
Dates can be entered in virtually any format you like. If we cannot work out what you mean the date will turn red.
When you are ready just click the 'Create a new chart' button.
