Good ideas Dennis. I'll add the information to the enhancement idea. Good catch with the picture icon. It shouldn't be there now, but maybe in the future it could be valuable.

I envision this as more of a V7 feature. ;-) Of course, attaching a note to a surname like "Smith" might not work out. You might have many Smith families in your database that have absolutely nothing to do with each other. But a surname like mine would be a different story. ;-) Maybe I'll take back what I said about the Surname Report ... with a caveat. If the Surname Report could be printed as a chapter in Publishing Center with options like... 1> Print only tagged surnames 2> Print surnames with notes 3> Print surnames with pictures (see my question below) ... then I think it might be useful to me. But I would still like to hear other ideas. By the way Geoff, why is there a Picture icon on the Master Surname List window? I can't seem to get it to do anything. But, if you could also attach a picture to a surname (for example, a map of the region in West Prussia where my Kowallek ancestors came from) and print it on the Master Surname Report, then that would be pretty neat! -- Dennis M.
