Cathy, Thank you very much for your suggestions.  I probably am not
advanced enough to take advantage of all you suggest.  I guess I will
muddle on for a while longer.  It seems the only way another person can
see everything in a data base is to have Legacy on their computer and
for me to copy the entire family group and send a CD to them; but I
don't have a way to share the total data base with other family members.
For families without a computer, there is no way to convey all the
background data that I have in the family groups. Thank you very much.
Jim

Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] How to print everything in data base

Hi Jim,
I'm not sure whether you mean everything entered for a particular 
individual or everything entered for everybody in your database.

No report will print absolutely everything entered for an individual 
although they will print all events and notes (so long as you choose
those 
options) there are limitations on pictures and sources depend on your
what 
you've chosen for printing.

Pictures: Reports only include one picture for the individual regardless
of 
how many you've attached. They will also print one picture per event. 
Pictures attached to birth, baptism, death, burial, marriage, don't
print 
on any reports at present.
You can print all pictures separately from View - Scrapbook.

Sources: There are check boxes on Master Source and Detail Source
screens 
as to whether you want some information printed.
You can set the default and change these choices globally in Options > 
Customise - Sources tab but you can't override the choice for a
particular 
report.
Neither can you change your choice for a particular Master Source. For 
example: I'd like sometimes to include the Source Detail text for a 
particular source and sometimes not, depending on why I was running the 
report. However you can't do this.

In the Master Source definition, along with Exclude this Master Source
from 
Reports, I'd like checkboxes for Exclude Source Detail for this Master 
Source/Source Detail Text etc.
In the Report Options, I'd like the choice to override my source
printing 
choices and either print everything or omit all source detail. Currently

you need to export to a temporary file and  change the options globally 
from Options > Customise to achieve that (unless you are printing a
Source 
Report that does seem to have override options).

The Multiple Line of Descent Report comes the closest to the second - 
printing everyone in your database - depending on what choices you make.
Or you can Print from the Name List but I'm not sure you can include all

events and notes this way.

Cheers,
Cathy
