Angelique, I have had a look at various Ancestor Report options and do have some results, however, to avoid wasting your's, mine and everybody else's time, I would be grateful for a clarification, as I may have to take a further look. You say: > I chose to print my source citations as footnotes and have the option > checked to start a new page after each generation (the mandatory one > for > footnotes under the page layout tab). I want the report in .rtf so > chose > that also. Do you actually mean "footnotes" or should it be "endnotes"? I ask because if I have footnotes selected and try to select RTF I get the message: "Footnotes on each page are not available when using Unlinked RTF source citations. Only endnotes at the end of the book is available....." . Now whatever this may mean, and frankly I have no idea what an "Unlinked RTF source citation" is (Sherry??) it would seem that footnotes cannot be positioned at the end of each generation. So do you mean endnotes, for which I do have some informaation?
