Hello
Using Legacy version 7.5.0.286, I created an ancestor report of my uncle as a gift for my cousin. I found something strange happening in the ahnentafel/AFN numbers generated by the report. Of the 11 children of Johannes B., there is descent in the lines of 3 of his children. Johannes B. (the father) is AHN# # 176. His daughter A.B. does not have an AHN# beside her name in the children's list, but she appears as #171 in her own record. His son G.B. does not have an AHN# beside his name in the children's list, but he appears as #176 in his own record. His daughter S.B. does appear in the children's list with the #73. Did this occur because 2 of the children's AFN# are greater than their father's? In other words, does it select and only enter an AFN# if it is lower than that of the parent? If I double either #171 or #176, the report indicates this is a duplicate of #146 which is correct. The problem is that under AFN#146, it looks as if there is descent of only one child, not 3 because # 171 & 176 are not entered beside the names of the children. Is this a bug in the version of Legacy I am using? Would the latest version of Legacy correct this? Also, is there any way the report could be generated so that each person is listed as (as example) AFN# 73, dau of J.B. (AFN # 146) & M.B.B (AFN# 147)? In other words, include the AFN# of the parents in the record of each child? Thank you for any explanation or help Norma 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://support.legacyfamilytree.com Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
