Debbie, In Family View you will see, on the right above the name three small boxes, numbered 1, 2, and 3. These are tag boxes, click on box 1 and this will set the tag for that person. Repeat this for all the ancestors whom you wish to tag.
Now go to File>Export To>Legacy File, and on the pop-up screen give it a file name of your choice. On the next screen, select ‘All records with a tag of 1’ and you will have the new .fdb file which can now use to create your report.

Seems very hard just to get this kind of report.
