Dora,
Go to the top of your screen and select REPORT. You want the JOURNAL
report. Then select OPTIONS and select REGISTER And ANCESTORS. That should
give you the same report.

Subject: [TMG] How do you print narrative report of ancestors with all
spouses AND all of their children?

Aplogies if this double posts. I posted it to last night
and it bounced. I just subscribed all over again, possibly twice. I
still have no notice that my subscription ever went through! Obviously it
did, as I received a post to the list

People recommended this software to me on the ground that it is possible,
and I can see from this sample output
http://www.dishmanweb.com/Dishman-p/p73.htm from Second Site that it is. I
installed the trial version of TMG, and I can't figure out how.

In a narrative ancestor report, how do you print all the children of
multiple spouses of each ancestor?

One of teh people who recommended this program to me said:

"I go to Custom Report Writer, then select Reverse Register and click on
select. When the Report Select Narrative screen comes up you click on each
of the tabs and fill in the questions it ask (Names your word processor,
printer etc) Next step click on the tab mark focus and select the PERSON
NUMBER you want to start your report with, your next tab is sort, the next
tab is TYPE this is important you tell it what you want and how you want it.

(Select custom format and click on each of the following you want it to do.
Don't forget to click ancestors or descendants. You next tab is Tags and
you select what you want and how you want it to read. The last tab is
Misc. Under TMG identifiers select NONE. Next step is generate the report.

"Children will print if you have them connected to a parent. When you have
double and/or triple ancestry it takes care of that really great."

Now, I can't find Custom Report Writer. How do you find Custom Report
Writer? She said she has an old version; does the current version have
it?
