Doris, I have not seen an answer to you, so here goes. Click on the icon Name List, click Print. Note that the Options and up to three 'rows' of column heads are available for a spreadsheet type report. Using the Search tool will create a subset of this same grouping. The Search -tool gives you the choice to make Boolean style searches on whichever group you want. Use Detail Search. Example: Look for whom? = Marriage Where to Look? = Marrige Place How to Look? = contains What to look for? = Illinois (using a 'big' place like Illinois will catch all from there. Next: for the second part of the question Use the 2nd condition to Look for whom? = Marriage Where to Look? = Marrige Date How to Look? = Before What to look for? = put the before date 1/1/1800 Finally Use the 3rd condition to Look for whom? = Marriage Where to Look? = Marrige Date How to Look? = After What to look for? = put the after date 1/1/1700. Now, you should have all the people in your DB married from 1700-1800 in your place. Have fun, note the bottom of the screen, the choices to trim the current group into a second search.
