Interesting option - had not noticed that before.  :-)

I thought I'd take a look, and after waiting probably less than a minute
for the preview to generate decided it would be much more efficient to
simply generate a PDF file of the report.

But that report - Individual Report, with "All individuals in the entire
family file (with spouses)" selected - produced a four-page report on
myself only.

BTW, the Help file doesn't appear to match the situation.  With the
window "Select a Report (current selection is: Individual Report)" open
I pressed F1 and the Help opened at "Reports Menu" - so far, so good.  I
selected "Individual Reports" from under the Chart Reports heading
(where not all the reports listed are in the format of a chart), and in
that new "Individual Reports" entry it says:

    Individual Reports

    *Selecting the Records to Print*

    You can print a family group record for the current family or for
    other groups.  The options are:

    *Only the Current Family*   This produces one copy of the family
    group record containing the husband and wife and their children.

    *Focus Group Records*   This prints a report for each family
    contained in the current focus group.  (See Focus Groups
    <focus_groups.htm>for detailed information on how to set up a focus
    group.)

    *All Families in the Entire Family File*This option produces a
    family group record for every family in the entire Family File.

    *All Individuals with a certain Tag Level*You select the tag level
    and then Legacy prints a group sheet for all families that have
    either the husband or the wife (or both) tag on that level.

    *All Marriages with a certain Tag Level*You select the tag level and
    then Legacy prints a group sheet for all marriages that have that
    level tagged.


This does not match the options given for this report, and sounds like
it's been copied from elsewhere and someone forgot to edit it.

Does anyone else get the same results?  Am I missing something
important?  That's entirely possible, and I welcome corrections if
that's the case.  :-)
