Aha! Jenny, I have been wanting to use Focus Groups for a while, but can't get the hang of it. Would you mind too terribly much sending me the instructions to generate a focus group that contains just the direct line ancestors of an individual? (I will most likely say "duh!" after reading it, but appreciate your knowledge so much!)

Tag your Search list with an unused tag, say 8 for example. Create a Focus Group comprising Direct Line Ancestors and tag that group with, say tag 9 for example. Then Search for Individuals with Tag 9 AND Tag 9 set to tagged. (There might be a simpler way, but I seem to be suffering from brain fog to-day.) -- Jenny M Benson <snip> 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 Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
