Connie - do you have a need to edit the report? The citations do print as
footnotes if your output is to pdf.

I am happy to say I've finally figured out how to get Legacy to "almost"
do what I think it should in the "word processing" department. As a
former skeptic of the Events fields (preferring Notes, but then with the
problem of inadequate citation to multiple sources for multiple facts), I
discovered (with a little help from this list) the [Notes] [Sources]
coding structure for Events. It is easy with this structure to come close
to the the free-flowing narrative of word processing.
Now, if only the marriage information would print where it should in a
narrative report, and footnotes could be exported where they belong (at
the bottom of the page, not at the end of the narrative), it would require
much less clean-up in a word processor...
