I’m using Windows XP. The Wholly Genes PDF Writer was already installed. So, I removed it, and reinstalled it. But I’m still getting a "Printer not activated" error.

Every time I try to print a report to a PDF file, I get an "Printer not activated, error code -41" error. Anyone know how I can fix this?

The only problem is, the tag controls the printing of information that's not actually in the tag. If the tag had a sentence and I wanted to repress the sentence in some reports, but not in others, I'd have to choose between having to edit out the sentence manually, or having the children in the wrong order. Not really a big deal, though. Yes, with the tag included, the children are in the correct order.

Well, to get cousins more distant than first cousins, you'd also have to start with an ancestor earlier than a grandparent.

When you open up the Master Place List, there is a Replace button on the right hand side that should do what you need. Personally, I just leave the country blank for places in the USA.

Actually, I think I just figured it out. I didn't have the "Unmarried" tag as one of my selected tags for the report. I wasn't even thinking about that, as there was no sentence to print out, but apparently TMG doesn't even check the sort date unless the tag is selected.

No one has any comments?

You could do a Kinship Report and edit out the relationships you don't want.

I have a woman in my database who married, had two children by her husband, divorced, and then had two children by a man she didn't marry. I created a custom "Unmarried" tag for situations like this. It is in the marriage group, and just has an exclusion marker in the sentence. In my database, I have Mary Johnson married to Tom Smith, with a sort date of 1990. She then has two children with Tom, birth dates of 1991 and 1992. Then she divorces Tom Smith, divorce tag sort date 1993. She then has two children with Joe Jones, birth dates 1995 and 1996. I added an Unmarried tag with a sort date of 1994. If I run a journal report on Mary Johnson I get: Children of Mary Johnson and Joe Jones were as follows: 2. Child1 Jones, born 1995. 3. Child2 Jones, born 1996. Children of Mary Johnson and Tom Smith were as follows: 4. Child1 Smith, born 1991. 5. Child2 Smith, born 1992. Now, if I change the Unmarried tag to a Marriage tag, the children from the Smith marriage will be listed first, followed by the Jones children. However, I then get a sentence saying that Mary Johnson and Joe Jones were married, when they weren't. Is this a bug, or am I missing something?

You probably just need to refresh the relationships: turn the relationship tag off, and then back on again, and then TMG will recalculate all the relationships. I can't help you with the errors, though.
