That's why I changed to wikis. Easy to assemble and easy to update.
Very html friendly if that's an option for your output. Too much hoopla
over crossing t's and dotting i's in a database that won't co-operate,
although I appreciate that some people have time to track down the bugs
and report them.

But what good is a .pdf. I'd have to have an absolutely perfect family
datafile to do a .pdf. I always need to tweak the .rtf document a
little before sending it out, so a .pdf is not good for me. I'm
beginning to wonder if anyone else besides me and a couple others have
gotten to the point where we do some research, but more disseminating
information to family members in the form of booklets. Looking at a
Preview is wonderful, a .pdf is fun, but if it doesn't transfer to a
.rtf, it's useless.

Keith, I did read it all, and they DO show up in the NAME INDEX. Ruth
did not clarify until just the last message that she is outputing to
rtf. There are a number of problems with the rtf output. But try
doing an ouput to pdf and you'll see the names are there.

Elizabeth - You did not read it all - the DO show up in the NAME INDEX
(I had pointed out how to do that earlier) - and in the narrative -
but in the DESCENDANT REPORT - there is a NAME INDEX at the end and
they are NOT there. That is what we are asking about.

"If I check the box Include Alternate Names on the Index Options

book report, shouldn't the alternate name print in the index? My
mother is
Domenica De Marco, alternate name Margaret De Marco - but only
Domenica
De Marco prints in the index. Another bug?

If I do a descendant report - the Alternate Names DO show up IN THE
NARRATIVE. But - as Ruth says - they DO NOT show up in the NAME
LIST.
And I must agree with her surprise about that - I would also expect
them to be there.
