Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Tip: Marking Your Direct Line
Ruth and Evert, Ruth, this reply from Evert is the first that I have received. Thanks, Evert, for the assistance. Doesn't this seem like a really basic report, and somewhat odd that it can't be more easily produced?

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Tip: Marking Your Direct Line
I think the basic report is the lineage chart or printing a report from the Relationship Calculator. If you want something extra you could use the steps I provided (only takes one to two minutes to produce that report and it's very easy to add more individuals to that report).

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Tip: Marking Your Direct Line
I think the only way to do this is to use tags and export to a new legacy family file. Tag direct line with tag 1 (or other #). Start with the starting person and tag him, go to his father and tag, go to the grandfather and tag etc. until you reach the oldest generation. Don't tag anyone else. This can be done in a few seconds. Export to a new legacy file and select All records with an individual tag of 1 (or other # you selected) and check Export all Spouses of tagged individuals, Export all Children of tagged individuals and Export all Parents of tagged individuals. Now you have a file with only the direct line descendants in a new legacy file. Make a descendants report in this new file.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Tip: Marking Your Direct Line
You could also use modified date if all wrong stuff is dated about the same time?
