I'm not able to duplicate this.
The first things to do when a report isn't formatting correctly even
when it's just for one individual:
1. Make sure you have the current build (7.5.0.112)
2. Reset the report options by clicking the Reset button in the lower
right corner of the main report
Thanks, Wendy. I thought that was true, but couldn't remember details.

I wish to get a list of all those direct ancestors for whom I have no death
date or place. I have check out the reports, including the event report,
but cannot figure any that will work for the purpose. Is there such an

How do I make a report of direct ancestors of only one family?
I'm planning a family reunion and want to give people who attend a list of
their ancestors in that family ONLY.

I am confused. Let's say you have ten =people at reunion. Do you want
to give each of the ten an ancestral report applicable to that one
person, or do you want to print *your* ancestral report and give a

Thank you.

If you enter the details for the possible parent (Name, birth, death

able to prove the connection. I would also, as Sherry suggested create a

I'm with Ron on this. I never link anyone where I don't have substantial

Well, that's what so great about Legacy - it allows you to develop a lot

I am not particularly averse to taking personal knowledge as being accurate,
