Hi Jan, thanks for your suggestions. Unfortunately, it is a such problem. I would rather have a single page (double sided) than have 6-12 pages to put on the fridge, or give to other people.
The initial query is for my uncles family but I would also like one starting with my grandparents. I can not print this as a text file as the only options are screen/printer and pdf otherwise I would let it make a text file and edit that. There are about 180 people in the report and to me it it seems ridiculous to have to write that out by hand when it is already on the computer, although it may be the only solution. The report is from my grandmother to present, and for my uncles family. BTW a double sided report with two colums can include over 200 people per page. To me that is a pretty good birthday list. Even if they had the normal text file output option, you could do something with it, but nope. -----Original Message----- From: Jan Roberts [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, 12 February 2010 10:56 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Creating a Birthay List Is it such a problem that each month starts on a new page? Or, if there are so few people that 12 pages (assuming there is at least one person per month) is overkill (of trees :-) ) then why not preview the report and write out the list by hand? I just did a report for everyone in my database. It takes 28 pages for 9,128 people. If each month ran straight on after the previous I would have saved about 4 pages.

I had a program from the 90's that would do this quite easily (reunion). Sad that it seems Legacy cant do this.

I have cleared all the tags, then tagged his descendents. I then go to -reports - calender list report I can get the report I want EXCEPT each month starts on a new page. This report would be spot on except for that. I simply want a list of all birthday etc sorted by date, not name. Is this possible?
