Printing Queries

you can't do it directly from within Family Historian. But if you have any
kind of spreadsheet program, you can easily copy a query straight into a
spreadsheet. Spreadsheets like Microsoft's Excel provide all kinds of
printing options for this kind of data (not to mention facilities for
analysing the data and presenting it in every imaginable kind of chart).
To copy the data across, click in the top-left cell in the Results tab of
the Query Window. Then scroll down to the bottom right hand corner.
Press-and-hold the Shift key and then click in the bottom-right cell. That
will select all the cells. Press Ctrl-C (i.e. press-and-hold the Ctrl key
while pressing 'C'). You won't see anything happen, but that will copy
everything to the clipboard (actually you could also click on Copy on the
Edit menu if you prefer to do that).
Then open your spreadsheet, click in the first cell and press Ctrl-V to
paste the data into the spreadsheet (or click on Paste on the Edit menu).
