I really have to say, though, even with this problem I'm having with the
Descendant Report, Legacy is fun to work with and better than any genealogy
program I've used. Now if the Descendant Report gets fixed, and if sometime
the Relationship indicator could be printed in reports, I'd be on cloud
nine!

I do not use the Source Writer, but even so I can see a problem with
sources in the Descendant Book report, at least with rtf. I get Roman
Numeral references for BMD information, but Arabic numbered references for
Events. The Roman Numeral citations are included in the endnotes, while
none of the Arabic citations are included.

Can I ask you, were the Sources at the end of the report formatted
correctly? By any chance did you end up with more sources in the .rtf
file than in the preview or .pdf file?
Sorry if I have caused some confusion. I hadn't looked at both the
on-screen and the RTF version of my Reports before. Now that I have done
so I see that the Sources for the RTF file *are* incorrect. Everything
else is fine - formatting as it should be and Sources where they should
be.
There seems to be 2 basic problems with the Sources. One is the RTF
report is not picking up where exactly the same Source has been used for
more than one person or event. So instead of one person's name having
Source numbers 1 and 2 (1=My personal knowledge, 2=Person's BC) and
another person's have Source numbers 1 and 3, the second person has
Source numbers 3 and 3. In other words, the Source "My personal
knowledge", which is identical Master and Detail, is repeated each time
with a new number.
Taking one person in my Report, in the screen preview she has the Sources
6, 9, 11 & 9, 11, 12 & 6, 13 & 1, 10, 14 & 15 for Name, Birth, Baptism,
Death, Burial. These are shown correctly in the endnotes. In the PDF
version, the same items are Sourced consecutively from 13 to 24.
Which leads on to the second error, which is that the Source numbers do
not relate to the correct text in the Endnotes. Of those 12 Source, 13 -
24, only 7 are correct.
I know there *were* some problems with Citations in version 7 and I know
some problems have been corrected in the updates already released. I
have lost track of what was reported and what was corrected and what
corrections have not reached us yes. Possibly this is one of the reported
bugs that will be fixed with the next update.
