The DVP program looks promising to keep track of all that paper and scanned data, so I would appreciate some guiding information on how you set up your system and how to use - you can send to me offline at 's2f@cox.net' to preclude using the forum since some folks might not be interested in the details.

      Hi Marc-- If it’s OK with you, I’ll send you a reply off-line at the email address you listed. Discussions on the use of DEVONthink Pro and Pro Office can get into the weeds pretty quickly even when one tries to keep the altitude of discussion at 20,000 feet!

          I've sent you an email directly, Jane. I want to avoid discussing third-party apps on Leister's nickel. If something develops that will be of general interest to the ReunionTalk forum, we can move back here.

                  DEVONthink operates very differently from other databases: it is more document centric. To get started, you just need to set up a system of folders aka groups much like one would in the finder.

                  There is a discussion of DEVONthink and genealogy hereon yet he devontechnologies forum: http://forum.devontechnologies.com/v...hp?f=7&t=23429

                  Where I share how I set up my database. Re union talk user Allsop is also a member and has chimed in as well.it might be easier to carry on the discussion of DEVONthink over there, rather than working via PMs and emails.

I have downloaded a trial version of DVT and am wondering if this is more program than I need. BUT I have a GREAT need to organize my scanned documents! Many are stored, sort of organized, in my documents folder, but my entire 24" desktop is covered at the moment & I am feeling paralyzed. I can be reached at zweeder at verizon dot net.
                      On the DEVONthink user forum, I discussed how I organized my genealogy database:

                      I know many genealogy researchers use or are interested in using DEVONthink.i’d like to share ideas about using DEVONthink for genealogical research.



                      Andrew has added his voice to the thread as well.
