Ruth:
If producing that book is necessary before Millennia resolves its
issues with the .rtf format, I would suggest you produce the book as
a.pdf document and then download a free pdf writing program that you
can use to do the editing and sprucing up......very similar to what
you would do with your wordprocessor. Contact me off list and I will
give you a few leads for free pdf writing software that may be just
what you need.

Jessica, You've got it correctly. And there is more than one bug
when the descendent book report transfers from Legacy to a Word .rtf
file. And when I use the Publishing Center, there are even more
problems. At the moment I have 17 separate chapters which I hope to
compile into one book and I'm going through them all line by line
eliminating the errors, adding code so Alternate Names print in the
Name Index, and so forth. The .rtf export route is a bust, as you say.

Alternate names....
It appears to me that the problem is pointedly with the output method
you are using. I've read all your posts, and while I haven't
replicated it or tried it (lack of time) the one key factor I see
throughout all your posts is that it is an issue in the RTF file.
As there are other issues with the RTF file exporting, I would lean
towards the RTF export routine built into Legacy 7.0 as being a bust,
and therefore a bug.
****To be clear:
Descendant Report EXPORT to RTF is NOT showing alternate names
Fix tried has included deleting the Descendant.usr file to no avail.
Your alternate names ARE showing up in the program interface itself,
as well as the PREVIEW of the DESCENDANT report on screen.
However, when you activate transferring to RTF, they do NOT show up.
Am I correct?

I'll wait to see if Keith answers if he did or did not check that
box, but I did with no luck. I've deleted all the .usr files I
think would apply and that didn't help either.

Keith, they do show up in the Index. But you have to go to the
Index Options and tick the box to include them there.

"If I check the box Include Alternate Names on the Index Options for a

Domenica De Marco, alternate name Margaret De Marco - but only Domenica
De Marco prints in the index. Another bug?

If I do a descendant report - the Alternate Names DO show up IN THE
NARRATIVE. But - as Ruth says - they DO NOT show up in the NAME LIST.
And I must agree with her surprise about that - I would also expect
them to be there.
