If you want an improvement you should register your request by
submitting a suggestion using either the link on the Legacy Home tab in
the program or by using the Make a suggestion link in the Help Center
menu on our web site: http://www.legacyfamilytree.com. The more detail
you provide on how you want the report to format the d'Aboville numbers
the better. In fact you seem to want two changes:

1. A different format for the d'Aboville numbering on a Descendant Chart
2. Add d'Aboville numbers to the Descendant Book and/or Descendant
Narrative Book reports.

[LegacyUG] Reports using d'Aboville Numbers

2015-05-18 Thread Stu and Priscilla Fanning
As long as we are talking about various reports with various numbers, one of 
the reasons that I chose Legacy when I got a new computer and needed to change 
my software, was because Legacy offered d'Aboville numbers.  I have a 
(descendant) book of my family tree which used those.  It came out in 1950.  It 
has a column for the number and then the name and information about that person 
is in the second column.  You can tell by the number, just how the person fits 
into the family.  For husbands who married into the family, there is an "h" 
after the wife's number.  For the wife who married in, there is a "w" after the 
husband's number.  A first wife is designated "w (1)" and the second wife is 
designated "w (2)", etc..  It is a wonderful system.
Legacy uses d'Aboville numbers in the descendant chart, but there is no 
separate column for the number, so it all merges together and is not so easy to 
read.  Also, there is no option to use the d'Aboville numbers in a descendant 
book if you wanted to include all of the information that you had about 
individuals.  Wish Legacy would make improvements in the use of the d'Aboville 
numbers.                         Priscilla
