I want to exclude living persons from a descendant report but cannot figure out how to do it. I looked in preferences and in the reports menu but was not able to find that option. Can you help?

Thank you.

billybob,

In the Descendants report you can select an option to include the birth (date) of living people or not but there is no way to exclude them completely. Dates for marriages are left untouched.

In the Descendants chart there does not seem to be any way to exclude the details or dates for living people either.

Hi Nigel

Some of what you say is correct but in the Ancestors/Descendants Diagram, in Customise Defaults there is an option Exclude Births of Living People.
