You can use your Version 2 registration code with Version 3 although there is a &#8220;drop dead&#8221; date where it will stop functioning.  (See &#8216;About&#8217; screen in Pocket Genealogist to determine drop dead date)   Each new Public Beta release may contain an extension to the drop dead date, the intent is to allow use of the Public Beta up to the point of Version 3 release.   (No sooner than spring of 2006 and more likely summer)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>New Features\/Major Changes:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<strong>Changes Report:<\/strong> In Progress<br \/>\n<strong>Format command:<\/strong> Complete<br \/>\n<strong>Relationship Calculator:<\/strong> Processing of Multiple Parents and &#8220;Relationship to Parents&#8221; needs to be completed.<br \/>\n<strong>Reset command:<\/strong>\tComplete<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Changes:<\/strong><br \/>\n* Added &#8220;Format&#8221; command (under &#8220;Tools&#8221;, &#8220;Devices&#8221;) for storage cards.
