Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone with any experience of producing ancestor book
reports may be able to offer some advise with a problem I have.
I'm tying to put together an Ancestor book report through the publishing
centre in Legacy 7.5 to give to my parents, aunts & uncles. As such I
thought of p
Hi Paul,
Here is my solution, I select the person I want to create the report about,
then select a descendants narrative report, create the PDF and save it to a
folder.
Next I open the PDF, then copy and paste the contents into a WORD document.
This way I have the ‘bones’ of the story, and can

Probably because I am used to using the PDF option, will take a look at RTF and
see how I like it.
Thanks for the tip Paula.

Hi Mike,
We use doxygen for producing some pretty decent looking manuals for our
software products. I agree its not the easiest to use, and can be a bit

You keep saying that you are using the program in anger. If Legacy or any
program is causing you anger, then don't use it. Nobody is forcing you to

entry, you are not the first, nor will you be the last, in voicing
frustrations over the inability to get your own data back out of it. The
archives are full of workarounds to address these issues too - locations vs
addresses, s

American if that makes a difference and I had never heard this phrase used
in this manner so I Googled it here
