Hi Ron, Hmm... I'm surprised there's no one that has ever tried this. I do of course want the focus to be on my ancestors, so I don't want the sibling families... just the siblings listed along side my ancestor. My reasoning is because I need a visual way to see the relation between many people

[LegacyUG] Extra Comma

2010-02-07 Thread Gavin Nicholson
Hi List, I seem to remember that with the initial release of version 7 there were a lot of issues with the source writer templates and extra commas when certain fields weren’t filled in. I don't seem to notice that anymore generally so I am assuming that they have been mostly fixed? If so, is
