Download My Excel Spreadsheet
The family tree pictures were done in Excel 2000.  

I've put the spread sheet in a free file sharing site on the internet - streamload.com  You can download it from there.

Draw Your Own   .gif Pictures
The "Drawing" commands were used to draw text boxes, add lines & colour etc.   The spreadsheet was "Saved as a Web Page".   It then magically converts the file to HTML & pictures.  The pictures are automatically saved in a sub file "Images" as image001.gif, Image002.gif etc.   Simply click on these & up comes the picture.

I found out (by trial & error) a really neat way of easily making up the      .gif picture.
   1.    Open Excel 2000
   2.    Use the "drawing" toolbar to make up 
               * text boxes with details
               * connecting lines to the text boxes
               * add colour
   3.    Draw a "rectangle" to cover the entire tree. This gives a "border" to the final   .gif
   4.    Send the rectangle behind all the text boxes/lines. Highlight the rectangle then Draw>Order>Send to back
   5.    Save as an Excel spreadsheet (for later changes) say Tree.xls
   6.    This is the truely magic bit. Now save as File>Save as Web Page say     Tree.htm
   7.    Xcel makes 2 files
               * Tree.htm
               * Tree_files
   8.   Open Tree_files & there should be image001.gif   This is the .gif picture.

There seems to a limit on the size of pictures you can make.
Note Word does the same - but tends to go all over the shop for anything larger than A4.
Vertical text also produces jumbled     .gifs
