Don'gt build, just borrow a template.

[Geek-9pm]

Some users come here wanting a full blown program to do something that has already been done many times over.
Like this:

Hello, Can I write a  program to:

• help me make hotel reservations for my boss.
• find the best way to drive in the snow.My job
• to make a model of World War for class project. II.
• make lures for big mouth bass..

None of the above are so unique as to require a program from the ground up.
Or, how about this:

Can I use Microsoft Office to help me print menus for my restaurant.
Is he the only restaurant  owner to have a computer?
No, there are templates by the scores.

...and the list goes on.
Moral: Don't build it; borrow a template.[/list][/list]

I've used some Excel templates I got from Microsoft.  But, as you say, templates for many purposes are available.  They can be easily found by doing a search. 

I see the website you mentioned has templates for a family tree.  Users of Microsoft Office can get a template for Excel, Word, or Publisher at http://www.brighthub.com/multimedia/publishing/articles/128444.aspx?cid=parsely_rec
