Does anyone know if it is possible to print out my index of names? If so please tell me how ! I would like to have a hard copy list so I can make paper notes about what further info I need. Thank you. T.O.R. ;o))

Hi There that is a question I myself would like answered too. i have tried many different combinations of printing stuff out and have never got all of my names on one list. look forward to seeing if anyone knows Tina

I'm afraid I can't help with how to do it (my son is the computer whizz in our house, and he's not here at the moment), but I know it can be printed out, as I have a copy of everyone in my tree. If you don't get the information from someone else earlier, I'll ask my son when he's home later tonight. Kath. x

You can print them. Go to Reports - looks like a printed page on the top menu. Select Custom. It then shows the list, you can play with it with the bar on the right hand side to change it to appear as you want it. Once you have what you want go to the printer icon at the top and print. You can change it to show the surname first by going to items to include on the right, if you put everything back to the left, then start with the names and put them on the right it gives what option you want to show them in, ie surname first. You can only do this if you start with the right side of the items to include box empty. Come back to me if I have confused you. Hope it works :-)

That's great Blossom - I knew someone would come up with the answer before my son got home. I should learn to do things myself and not rely on my son so much. Kath. x

Thank you Blossom. Oh dear - 11 pages to print and I need to add about another 100 names. Again Many thanks been trying to do this for a couple of weeks now. T.O.R. ;o))
