Thanks for the suggestions. I see how to do a print out using the Search function and the report that can be designed from that screen.
Is it possible to do the Location Report using the people with a given tag? I can search on/show list of everyone in Vermont. What I want to do next is print the people in that list with tag 1 (direct line ancestors). Can I do that? If so, how? If it can be done but requires multiple searches, please be very specific in your instructions. I am having difficulty finding specific directions in the manual or online help that deal with focus groups, search, save, load - I am totally confused. I am surprised this hasn't been easier to figure out. I thought wanting a list of direct ancestors by location would be a fairly common need and therefore easy to do in Legacy. I am using Legacy 5 Deluxe (Oct 2004 build) Thanks JH Todd On 5/6/05 8:40 PM, "Cathy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Todd, > Firstly, when you export a tagged group to a new family file, locations > should be present in the new file.
