rwood238 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2011 I have been using the Journal Report (JR) to set up my ancestors for publication.Prior to my problem, the report showed all my ancestors by generation. This what I wanted. But reviewing the report, I found that I wanted to change some of the report "options". After carefully reviewing all the options tabs and selecting the ones I thought I would like to have, I closed the options and clicked on the create report button. The problem. When I go to view the report, there is only the title, the author and Generation 1 and the beginning paragraph stating, " 1. an unknown person. I presume I must have checked, or unchecked something that prevents the report from being shown. I have went back over the Options many tims without finding my error.

Virginia Blakelock 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2011 Dick - It might be the Surety settings. Try ticking both 'No Threshold' and 'Include blank surety' to include everyone. Did you also have a question about the at/ in/ or /blank before the location? Virginia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rwood238 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2011 good afternoon Virginia, Thank you very much for the information. That appears to correct my problem. No, I did not have a problem about the in/at/blank before a location. I am still trying to tweak the Journal Report output. It appears that some formating things are better done in MS Word. dick wood Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terry Reigel 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2011 Dick, I agree that some formatting is better done in Word - in fact some useful formatting can only be done in a word processor. If you find yourself making the same formatting changes time and again, you might consider creating a Word macro to do them for you. My article on Word Processor Macros explains how to do that.
