Barton, The Descendant Book Report is where you will find the Register and Modified Register (NGSQ) formats.
The way you have entered your land transaction is different than I have ever seen. You have entered a single event for all of the land around a particular body of water and combined all off the deeds into a single citation? This is a bit messy. Just my personal opinion but each land transaction needs to be its own event with its own citation. You can easily mention other related transactions in the notes such as, "Jacob and his brother's John and Joseph bought adjoining pieces of land on Little Black Creek." As far as source text/comments and detail text/comments printing in the footnotes you need to have these selected to print. You will find this in two places. You can do it singly on the Master Source screen for that source (right under where you entered the text/comments) and on the detail screen (right under the text/comments) and you can do it globally in Option 7.2. If you make a change there you need to click the Apply button over on the right.

A few follow up questions: 1. I created an event for the water body where my ancestor owned land and put all the deeds for that body in that event. In the source detail, I copied the abstracts just as they were given in the book in the Text/Comments field. When I generated a descendant book report, the source detail did not print out in the footnote. I looked for an option to do that but did not see it. Is there one? I'd like researchers to see exactly what is in the abstract. 2. In PAF you could print a "register report" which is presumably the equivalent of a descendant book report in Legacy. (Please let me know if there is another.) The report was continuous and did not break down into generations like Legacy's and the footnotes all appeared at the end. Is that possible in Legacy?
