Please can anyone tell me how to print a descendant outline report without census information in it?

Open your report, select the person you want then select Options, on the right is the event selection.

If you have it set to 'All', select exclude list and edit the list so that census is selected and that will then be omitted from the report.

Once this is done, I would recommend saving the report format, click on Save As, then Custom Report Type. Then you can choose this report layout when ever you need it.

When you are viewing the Report click on the 'Options' button. On the Main tab of the Report Options screen that appears click on the 'Edit List' button under the section for Individual Events/Attributes. This lets you select the various events you wish to see in the report. Take the census event out of this list and it won't appear in the report.

Edit: Sorry posted at same time as Jane.
