Hi, I'm using Legacy 6 Deluxe latest build.
I'm looking for a way to do something like the multiple descendant book report, but for everyone in the database. Picking the starting marriages by hand isn't too bad - I have 45 starting points for my direct ancestors. But to find everyone in the database, I tried tagging all linked individuals with no parents. That's 2500+ people in this case. I tagged them, then walked through the tags in the family view. If the spouse has parents, I untag the person, because that person would be listed when doing the spouse's descendants. Walking through 2500 tags is cumbersome to say the least! Here's the problem I'm trying to solve - surely somebody else has addressed the same issue? When I do the descendants of the furthest-back BARNARD, the report shows both me and my uncle - we're both Barnards. It shows my uncle's wife because she married into the family. However, it does NOT show her grandparents - they're not married into the Barnard line. However, I'd like to show her grandparents, because we know who they are, and if I share my report with my aunt&uncle's family, they'll naturally be interested. Any way to do this reasonably easily? The multiple descendant book report is great. It eliminates duplicate lines. Suggestions?
