Cheryl:
The OP, Lynn, wanted an hourglass with the ancestors in one direction and
the descendants in the other. I thought that the Legacy Charting hourglass
would do that too but what it does is the ancestors of one parent to one side
and the ancestors of the other parent to the other side with the children in
the middle. This is not what Lynn wanted.
Maybe there is a way to fool it but I did not try. Or maybe that is a new
chart for an update.

In my copy of Legacy Charting, there's an hour-glass report,
which is pretty much what you're describing. And it let me
ask for 7 gens in each direction from my ggparents. In the
particular family file I had open to check, I don't have 7
generations on both sides entered, so I can't swear it works?
I don't see that chart in Legacy8 or 7.4, just in Charting.
