Hi Ronni Sorry I had not come back earlier. You have no idea how quickly the day/weeks fill up when retired
I do not fully understand your reply. I have tried/experimented with the formats of both Pedigree and cascading pedigree charts and do see value in both of these. In the second part of your reply you said Pull down the menu, Create.... then click on Pedigree chart Choose how many generations you want to show on the chart. Am happy on all of that What followed is the part I did not understand Then pull the Tree menu---to orientation You will have a choice of Waterfall, left to right etc I could not find those headings. Could you please expand or clarify for for me?
