In the Ancestor Book, Descendant Book, and Descendant Narrative Book
reports, there are lines between events (both Modified Register and

wasteful of ink PLUS the lines go right through the photos on the right hand

Hi Gail,
There are two ways you can make an Event Private. You can make just this
particular instance Private by checking the tick box OR you can go into
the Edit the Event Definition and make that whole Event Private. (which
is what you need to do for your Found Event so you don't have to worry

Consider why we worry about the county - where are records kept in case
you need to do some research there. So you might be better off logging
where the "city center" is, rather than where the person was physically
located.
Of course that also depends on how both counties stored their records!

It sounds like you have some hidden format control characters. If this is in a
notes field, try using the "Strip HTML" function. I'm not sure if it will help
the period/vertical bar problem, but I think it may help your spacing issues.
You can also try cutting and pasting to Notepad and then
Hi Laurel,
I can repeat the problem and have a PDF of a Family Group Sheet showing that
exact error. Version 8.0.0.467 Deluxe just installed. Please feel free to add
my email and offered copy of FGS showing the error to your Report Issues if you
think it will help.

I am using the newest update of the Legacy program.
I decided that it was time to do some "major" clean up work in my family
file... and one of the things that I am doing is checking to see that
events that are marked private are really supposed to be private. I have a
tendency to "grab" a bunch

Hi Tom,
Not the same report but similar problem a few weeks ago [Legacy 8.0.0.459
Deluxe]. I thought I was going nuts as the new events were there where I added
them but only the old events were appearing in the report and not the additions.
I was copying and pasting these events - only minor
Thanks Bobby. I did both of those, no change. I also did check/repair

Agh!

Tom,
While in the Descendent Report Options (Options tab), check to see how you have
the "Include Main Entries For" block set up. If you have the individuals with

To make it even worse, the Springhill Cemetery there NOW is in Louisiana.
