No...high hopes, but I guess not. I did and it didn't. The column on the left allows some checks, but none at all on the column on the right. There are boxes with the letter C to the right of some of the items on the right side. I do not remember seeing those before. That does not mean they

Hi Jane, The C means Clear I wonder if you're not in the report you think you are. Have you gone to the Descendant Chart instead of the Descendant Book Report or Descendant Narrative Book Report? If you are in the right report and reset settings didn't help, sometimes it helps to close Legacy,

OK here's the thing: I need a descendant report from ancestor X. I am certain there is some simple box to check or button to click that I am overlooking here, but I can't select any options on the Report Option screen. They just seem like they don't recognize the check. They don't look greyed

Yes. I was able to confirm a line that had circumstantial evidence but I felt needed one more hard fact. However, unless you are willing to share your tree on Ancestry, you will not get full benefits. I pull out a barebones GedCom from Legacy and uploaded it to Ancestry and link it to my test.
