Re: Re: [LegacyUG] Printing charts

[the_verminator]

Funny that... and there I was thinking I was discribing the imprecise usage of 
a specific genealogical term, i.e. "Ancestor Chart"

There may well be a chart that shows the relationships the person wants, but 
whatever type of chart it will be it will NOT be an Ancestors Chart; just as a 
descendants chart should not include stepchildren, foster children, or adopted 
children. While there is no doubt that they are members of the family; no amout 
of paperwork, wishing, praying or loving will make them actual descendants.

Perhaps it is long past time that the family historians got together and 
decided on real names for these kinds of charts instead of usurping and trying 
to re-define regular standard genealogical terms.

There are certain lines that divide genealogists and family historians.. the 
lines of Ancestor and Descendant charts.

From: Bill:                   I would like to print an ancestor wall chart with all the family members in the file, including all the siblings, partners and children in the data base.                 The only way I have found of including everyone is to generate a multiple line of decent report. Does anyone know a way of doing this? Hope to hear from someone soon. Bill Perth Western Australia. No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
