[LegacyUG] descendant report
Hello, Could someone please tell me if it is possible to print a concise report of the descendants of someone, including their name, birth date (not place), marriage date (not place), address, phone, and e-mail ? One of my relatives does this with other genealogy software, to keep everybody in his family up-to-date with all of their contact information, and I'd like to do it for another branch of living relatives.

It is a clean system with a topic-based layout. Members of the forum are able to post by topic, attach videos, photos, screen captures, and files. These are on-line so they do not download unless you choose to download them. It may be something to consider as forums evolve over time.

Re[2]: [LegacyUG] attachements, plain text
Quite simply, because there are those who refuse to follow rules/requests. I will repeat what others have said previously, if a user refuses to adhere to the rules/requests, they should be given one warning. If the user repeats the violation they should be removed from the list for a predetermined amount of time - I.E. - 1st violation 1 month suspension, 2nd violation 3 month suspension, 3rd violation permanent removal from the list. Unfortunately, the Millennia folks would never implement such a system because they wouldn't want to upset any of their customers. There are several subscribers to this list who have repeatedly made it clear they do not care what the rules of the list are. They insis that they will send their emails to the list in any format that they want to. Apparently the Millennia feel that it is acceptable for the violators to cause potential undue hardship to those who are on dialup and/or risk sending a hidden virus/malware to other subscribers of the list.

Re: [LegacyUG] descendant report
There is no way to remove the locations from the Descendant reports, however in Legacy Charting, you can choose to show the date only. The address, phone and email aren't included in charts though. You could create a Calendar List or Calendar Creator to create a birthday and/or anniversary calendar and an Address List for the addresses. Select Address Labels from the Books/Other tab and on the Custom Size tab, select to print in a report format.

Re: Re[2]: [LegacyUG] attachements, plain text
I was aware in the past of some users who were apparently escorted off permanently, but do not remember details. I have not noticed many 'refusers' since most stop before the third time. I don't police the list. There are others who do, hooray for them.

They always relied on users to refrain from sending attachments and/or HTML messages. Finally thy gave up on saying no HTML because some users simply refused to follow the guidelines. At least, they haven't caved on attachments even though some users ignore that also. It would be really nice if they would look into software that can block/reject messages sent to the list in HTML and/or attachments, but it doesn't look like that will ever happen.

Re: Re[2]: [LegacyUG] attachements, plain text
Ron, it's really not that many people who post attachments and it's probably only because they didn't read the guidelines before posting. And they generally respond in a positive manner when it's brought to their attention. We just don't have time to keep track of offenders like you suggest. What bugs me most are those who don't trim previous posts nor the tags that the list software adds to the messages. That's a heck of a lot of junk to scroll through to get to the next message when they're threaded messages in Gmail!

RE: Re[2]: [LegacyUG] attachements, plain text
The problem with saying that the 'rules are the rules' is that one accepts the status quo forever. Change, positive change, can only come when people lobby for it. There are situations, such as including screenshots in messages, where a picture is worth a thousand words. This kind of controversy (often flames, not polite reminders) does turn off customers. And, dissatisfied customers usually just leave quietly and don't post about it, but they do pass on negative comments to their friends and acquaintances. Although this list is still very valuable in its current form with its current rules, the internet is increasingly a graphics rich medium, and this list (or some other technical incarnation of it) would be better if some way to include graphics could be found.

Re: [LegacyUG] descendant report
1. Do you need the people organized into generations? If so then Sherry's response is correct. 2. If you do not care how the report is sorted you can create a report of the descendants which includes the data you want on each person. The sort order can be RIN, Surname or Given names. Use Search Find Miscellaneous Search Tab Select Focus Group then click on the View/Select Focus Group Button Use clear list to remove any existing focus group definitions Use the Add Individual and Descendants button Use the change button to select the head of the line you want to have in the report Select the Descendants Option not the Entire Descendant line and the number of generations Click OK NOTE: If there is more than one head of line that you want in the branch you can repeat this to select those other heads. The focus group will then include all the lines you select. When you have finished selecting your focus group(s) click OK Click Create List Sort the list by RIN. Given Name or Surname by clicking on the labels or in the boxes at the top of the screen. Click Print In the List report options you can select the data you want to include as up to three rows. If you have difficulty or questions at any stage press F1 or use the help button on the screen for more information.

Re: [LegacyUG] attachements, plain text
Sherry (and others) Saw your response and I took a quick look at Legacy's Google+ Page and Facebook Page. Both seem to be used to advertise the Legacy product and webinars (nothing wrong with that). Just saying it does not appear to be set up for or include the give and take that a forum has. Not sure why as several other Google+ pages have lots of interaction. If it is because anyone going to the site only sees posts about webinars, they might consider that this method of communication is a one-way street. I get that a company only has so much time to invest in social media and user forums. I was simply suggesting a method that allowed for attachments and topic headers without clogging up someone's email account and/or what some might consider an updated version of a forum. I also took a look at the site you referenced - Genealogywise. It appears to be a website with lots of ads and requires membership. That is not really the same thing as a users' forum. But I did get the gist of your response - previous discussions have been had, change is not in the offing. Got it. Appreciate the webinars and the product.
