* Formating Reports

[David_Lewis]

I've been using FHv3 to chart all the descendants of the Electress Sophia, a project that has taken me a few years to complete.

I now want to produce an outline descendants report but cant quite get it to format exactly as I want.

At the moment each individual occupies 3 lines in the report

Typically as follows

1.1 George I of Hanover (1660-1672)
Marr. Sophie Von Braunschweig-Luneburg 1692 Div 1694
Sophie Von Braunschweig-Luneburg 1666-1726

What I would like it to look like is something along the lines of

1.1 George I of Hanover (1660-1672) Marr. 1692 Div 1694 Sophie Von Braunschweig-Luneburg 1666-1726

any clues in how to acheive this?

I'm sure Its a matter of playing with the options but I can't work out how to do it.

Regards
Dave Lewis

Ps I have had a further play with the Layout events and atributes and tried 'With Other information' That lists the marriage on the same line but repeats the spouses name on the second line

I can't see a way to get it on one line, but obviously you could simply save the document as an RFT file and do a search and replace.

Alternately you might be able to build a query to do one line per descendant with the information you want.

Thanks Jane,

Is there anyway of ommitting the spouse information altogether so the report would look like.

1. Electress Sophia (XXXX-XXXX)
1.1 George I of Hanover (1660-1672)

That would considerably shorten my report
