Thanks for that information Cathy but it still won't work because with
Chinese names you use both the generation name and given name together. So

I think John meant to put the first name and generation name in the

You could also put the first name and generation name in double
square brackets in the Given Name field followed by a quoted name -
the name
Name]]. I think that will work in printed reports.
Hope this helps.

June,
Perhaps this is something to request an enhancement on. If someone
marks the name (somewhere) as "Chinese" then it will print in the
