Stanza 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2008 When creating an Ahnentafel report, I do understand that this shows only the direct line of ascent. However, I would like to amplify the basic report to create a fuller "family picture" by including a sentence for each person, along the lines of: "[Person]'s siblings were X, Y and Z" Is this possible with V7 (silver) and if so how? Or is there some dreadful consequence of messing about with the nature of the Ahnentafel?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terry Reigel 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2008 By definition, an Ahnentafel is an "ancestor table" - siblings aren't ancestors. TMG's Ahnentafel report follows that classic definition. But... the Journal report, when set to the ancestors direction, does show siblings of ancestors. I'd suggest you try that report and see if it does what you have in mind.

Stanza 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2008 Thanks, Terry - I appreciate the suggestion. It looks a bit messy in its raw format (maybe because I've never used this facility before!!) but I can probably use it to produce a tidier version closer to what I'm after. Thanks again.
