Silver Streak Report 4 Nov 2006 11:50

I have read all the info that has been given for FTM 2005 on this program and you have helped me considerabley.. How do I get names to appear on Pedigree View I have clicked everything. I cant even find a contact us - for help. also. If I print a descendants chart of the oldest name on my Maternal side it doesnt show my Mother or myself. To get around this I have printed The oldst name then My Mother's name and then my name. and I will stick them all together to send to my relation. Is this the only way? I am confused. Molly.

Ithink the print starts wherever you are on the tree on screen, so if you need to start with yourself you have to be on the screen Shirley

Also, the can control the number of generations that appear on a report. For example with a descendant tree, on screen, click on content, then # of generations to show. and change the number to display fewer or more generations. The system remembers that last value you used, for each report type. And to add to what Shirley said, it is no good just having the name visible on screen, you need to select the person you want to start with by having the flashing cursor in their name or one of their related fields.
