Thanks Cathy I will try that.
I did try the other way but it didn’t work so will have a go at this.
If unsuccessful – then will just slowly go through them and make the change.
Kind regards - June

June,
To get the age calculated and the order right in the chronology, you
have to have the date in the date field, so other work around solutions
won't work.
I've found a way using Search and Replace to replace a blank date field
but I don't think you're going to get enough information on the
Thanks Wendy - sounds like this will work.
Kind regards - June

Hi June,
Are all your Census Events - as entered at the moment - for the same
Census (ie country/state/whatever) and year? Such as 1861 England
Census, or 1920 US Census, etc.
If they are, then you could go to the Event Definition (View > Master
Lists > Event Definitions...) and edit your c
Sorry I should have said English. For example I have several hundred people
where I have entered details of the 1891 UK Census but have not put the date
in. I like to have the date as it then calculates age and puts events in order.
At the moment I am going through each person individually, c
Barbara,
Have you tried the Ancestor Book Report? Only Direct line ancestors,
starts from you and then reports parents, grandparent, great
grandparents etc.

June,
Are you talking American Censuses where the date is different for each
entry or English censuses where the date is the same for a census year?
If the latter, you can make the process faster by creating a search list
for the Event and then using the Repeat function of clicking on the dat

Hi June,
Interesting question and I'll bet there are others who did not enter
dates.
Most of the Census takers did not work in the winter months.
I use Census for the Event,
Then for the description I put in "1850 Federal"
Then I put in the actual date located at the top of the Census Sheet

When I initially started entering census information through 'Events' I did
not put the date of the census.
I now have hundreds of entries I would like to put the dates on but it's

Is there a way I can edit the event and put the date in so that it will

I think the reason that some users find that Report generation to be
overwhelming is that over the years Legacy has added more and more options
with a multitude of report types and appearances, all due to user demand.
Perhaps some users would find a simple one-button Report with no options the

Hi Linda,
If you create the whole file as a cvs, you can then sort by location, cut
and paste just the specific location to another worksheet and use that.
By cutting and pasting specific locations to another worksheet, you preserve

I'm playing with your 2nd idea to see if I can get that one to play well!
I think I am trying to get too specific with two different types of reports

Yes, I can do the search for #1 tags and look at ALL their locations. I
want the shortcut of being able to just see for example those #1 people and
the locations in just one state like Maryland. The biggest puzzle as I

Can't you use your tagged list of ancestors and look at each location within

I have used Legacy for years, not always successfully, often challenged.
My main problem has come when I need a particular kind of report. It
just seems unnecessarily complicated and the type of report I need is
always quite hard to come by.
I am afraid I may be at the end of my relationship
I am using the Descendant Narrative Report of the Publishing Center. I

I am trying to get the report I wish, but have run into a puzzling
problem. My Descendant Report only goes 3 generations down. I have
looked 16 times for an option to select how many generations, but do not
find it. Why does it stop short of going all the way down to me?
Everything looks OK
