Re: [LegacyUG] Descendancy Report
Re. question 2., you have an option of exporting as a text file. And I think that takes care of the page numbering problem as well.

Re: [LegacyUG] Descendancy Report
There are three Legacy reports you could be referencing. The Descendant Chart, Descendant Book and Descendant Narrative. The later two reports have an option to be output as RTF files which can be imported into your MS Word document, they include indexing and TOC codes which MS Word can use to include proper Xref page numbers. I am not sure about the page # reference on the spouse but I am sure you could change that page number to an appropriate Xref within MS word. The Descendant Chart report however only has a Text output so you would have to add your own Xref markings after importing the text file into your MS Word document.
