As you've probably realised, your stepson doesn't show up because Legacy is all about genealogy and genealogically speaking he is not a descendant of you father. One idea that comes to mind is that you could temporarily add your stepson as a child of your own (ie as a child of the marriage of you and his father) just for the purposes of the chart. After printing, you could go over the line linking him with a highlighter pen or something and write a brief explanatory note if you wanted people to know what the exact relationship was, or just leave it as is if you want him to be considered exactly as any other children. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
