Untag everyone on the tag you wish to use. Now, on the Advanced Tagging screen click "Descendants...". On the Descendant Options screen, click "Spouse..." and select the oldest daughter's spouse that you are interested in. Then, back on the Advanced Tagging window, select the number of generations and check the box that says "Descendants (Includes all descendants)". Then click OK. Now go to her parents and manually tag them. You should be done tagging at this point. Now, in order to force the report to use just the tagged individuals, you may need to export the tagged individuals to a temp Legacy database and run the report from there. -- Dennis Kowallek (LTools) http://zippersoftware.com/ltools http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ltools 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
