George: You have had some very good responses but I do it still differently. If I have missunderstood and you want a reort like John suggested the following won't pertain. You mentioned the Descendant narrative report but not the Descendant report, book format, Modified register or register reports. These reports will print everyone connected to the original ancestor or head of family. Depending on what you select to include they are very inclusive and your picutres should also print. I use these all the time but without pictures. You may have to run several reports if you have several lines, ex: one for you mother's side on for you father's. For miscilany people not attached to your family lines at this time then Alice's multiple line or Rodier family group sheet should do nicely.
Without a modified register report I would have been lost years ago. This is my favorite and has kept track of all people descendant from the probable immigrant. Mutliple marraiges and marriage notes are included if you go to Options on the Descendant book screen. Depending on the number of people you have in one line this hardcopy form can be great for research trips for quick reference and note taking. Karen V.
