Hi Freck, I have looked at the Notts site with an aim to buy the £50 version of BMDs but cannot fathom out what I need, as it does not seem strait forward- maybe Iam just being thick here- What are V5. V2 and will I also need to purchase the upgrade at another £20. Are you using it with Windows 7 and is it running well??

OK maybe if I read the notes and wasn't so hasty.....

Hi larkspur,

The V5 baptism and burial and V2 marriage CD are just the most recent version - every now and then a more updated version is released with more records. Only in a few years time might it be worth buying the update at £20.

I have been using the CD a lot the past few days and it is running great. I've tried it on both Windows 7 and Vista and it works fine on both.

Hope this helps.
