Forgive me if this sounds like rediscovering the wheel. I am an amateur preparing our own family histories, and am suddenly quite upbeat about a way that I have stumbled on to create reader-friendly books for our relatives.

Hi Leroy,
I can't imagine producing a book based on Individual Reports - but
each to their own.
Are you collecting them all with the Publication Centre? There is the
option to add other types of pages in that.
I'm responding re your issue on the Chronology Report.

I imported my GedCom from Family Tree Maker, and then wanted to
experiment with a small ancestor book, using the RFT format. I only did
about 4 generations, rather than the full 15, but have noticed that the
text is a little 'off' - words that should be whole are appearing with a

Thanks so much Dave - I deleted the original file and re-imported from
FTM, using the customize button and when I looked at the ancestor report
generated in RTF the words all were fine.
I am so glad I found this group, as everybody has been so helpful.

This is crazy, and clearly a lame question - I must have done it before, but
I am going nuts trying to figure it out this morning.
I have a family group: father, mother, and several children. All of the
children were believed to have been born to the same mother. I have
discovered that some of
I believe this involves unlinking first from the set of parents in
which one parent is wrong and then relinking the child(ren) to the
correct parents.

That's the only way I could figure out - but it just didn't seem likely to
me that one couldn't just change one parent.
Thanks.

Nevermind, that didn't work. I am now doing it as an event and it will show up

Michele,
Next time you post to the list it would be a good idea to send the email
in plain text. This is required for this list - it was probably
mentioned in your welcome letter. Personally, I don't mind, but some
filter out messages in HTML and some get really angry about it. It has

OOPS very sorry everyone this was meant to go off list.
Very embarrassed,

Just a quick observation on my part: I don't worry
about the county verifier either when entering burial
information. I want to know where my ancestor is
buried NOW, so I can find the cemetery/burial site
when I want to.
Hope that made sense1

I think you are hovering over the box that shows "ancestor color coding" if
you choose to use that option. Since you have done what Ron suggested, the
next step would be to go to options->customize->view->ancestor color coding.
Once you have chosen colors and checked the box, save and th
