Hi If you go to reports you can pick which one you would like to use. Example you can pick ancestor of --- or descendant of --- or you should be able to print charts  etc. Trial and error therfore you should use preview before you print.

if you're like me and have gone sideways a lot - you will probably need to do several prints to get everyone in your database.  Basically go back to the earliest person you have and print the descendents - making sure you choose at least 20 generations (or more if necessary) to get everyone down to the present. And do that for all the earliest ancestors you have.

Then go the youngest person and print all the ancestors for that person. The same for any other youngest peiople you have found.

The descendents will give you all the siblings and their descendents, while the ancestors will not.

I use Legacy 6 and I too wish I could have everyone printed - but, I can't.

Hi

You can print all the indviduals in a family tree + notes - the whole works using PAF (Personal Ancestry File) free download from the LDS at:

http://www.familysearch.org/

What you would have to do is export a GEDCOM file from Legacy and then import it into PAF.

To generate the report:

Select File->Reports and click on the Books tab.

Then put a check on Modified Register (Descendancy).

This report as the name suggests is a whole book, complete with an index and reference number to find the page an individual is on.

Give it a try as it is free and you have nothing to lose.

Hope this helps
