Excellent catch, Marg.
 
I would think, since this is the family that the sample database

opens to by default, that those particular parents would not be set
as private. A potential new user opens the sample file to take a
look around and look what happens; an immediate issue crops up. A
helpful alert would be for the privacy box to turn a color if it's
been set to anything other than "Not Private".

If you look on the individual's information form, in the lower right 
corner, there is a large button labeled "Privacy Settings".  Right 
underneath that button you will see (Not Private), (Private) or 
(Invisible) Depending upon what the individual's setting is.  I don't 
really see the need to change the color when it is clearly spelled out 
what the setting is.  You just have to know where to look.

I think the lack of parents for Eleanor Huffman may be because the have 
been marked as Private.  Check John Huffman and Mary Smith's individual 
information screens and look for the privacy settings, lower left.  Or check 
the Descendant narrative report for Eleanor.

  I'm a TMG user, working to learn if my larger project might find a home 
in Legacy. 

   

  Register Reporting:

  I ran a Descendant Book report from the sample file this morning, 
"Descendants of Asa Clark Brown." Actually, believe I ran a few of these using 
both Register and Modified Register format. 

  In Options for Descendant Books>Include tab: the option for "other 
parents" is turned off. Is there a secret to making this option available for 
the Register/Modified Register report? 

   

  Said another way, where the report now reads as (a) below, I'd like it to 
read as (b) below. 

   

  (a) "Asa next married Eleanor Huffman .. on 8 Mar 1832 in Tionesta, 
Venango, Pennsylvania, USA. Eleanor was born on 11 Jan 1803 in Kingston, 
Frontenac, Ontario, Canada and died on 3 Jun 1874 in Saint Cloud, Stearns, 
Minnesota, USA."

RE: [LegacyUG] Questions about Legacy "Register" style reporting

[GeneJ (GM)]

Hi Mary:

Thank you for responding to my inquiry. 

 

You wrote: "I can't see any difference in the settings"

Okay . trying this with a new file. Options for Descendant
Books>Include>left column, "other parents" also can't be selected; however,
as is the your case, when I print from this new file, the spouse's parents'
names do report. 

 

After posting my inquiry, I found at least one reference to odd behavior in
book styled reports. Didn't post further because of the date, and I didn't
see an ultimate explanation.-Some said that if they close their file and
then reopen, the information appears in the report but they note no change
in behavior on the options screens. 

See the thread: "Printing Report Question - parents of spouse," May 2008

http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/msg23570.ht
ml

 

Perhaps this will ring a bell for you or someone else. 

Does anyone know if one should be able to select or de-select setting in
Options for Descendant Books>Include>left column, "other parents" ??? 

In the alternative, can anyone confirm that if it is not a "selectable
option" that the names of spouse's parents should, by default print? 

 

Thank you again for your assistance, Mary -GJ.

Gene,

 

I don't know why the sample file omits "the daughter of so and so". Mine
does the same thing, yet my personal files do insert the daughter of so and
so? I can't see any difference in the settings so I don't understand why the
sample file omits it? This is a bit strange.
