Reports
I want to start off by saying that you have a brilliant program. I have been working on my family history on paper since 1979 and on the computer since 1981. I have tried every PC program out there with Legacy and The Master Genealogist being the best. I have recently come over to the Dark Side (Mac) and will never return. Thus my problem, while this program is one of the best I have come across for ease of data entry, GUI, and just being chock full of ways to look at your data. Improving it's reporting ability would be greatly appreciated. Is there any chance of you including a Register Report? I would be more than happy to send you an example. Thanks again for creating such a wonderful program.

Aaaagh! FROM the dark side 
Perhaps if you made your requirements a little clearer, it's possible that Warwick will come back to you fairly soon.
Happy Christmas to all
Agree that it's the best programme around, but not sure what a 'Register' report is.cturbeville wrote: I have recently come over to the Dark Side (Mac)

Register Report Example
The following is the definition of a Register Report and below that is an example
The Register System
The register system is a standardized numbering system for the descendants of an individual. In this system, the first person is assigned the number 1. His or her children are then listed in birth order, indented and identified by lower-case letters (a, b, c, etc.). The children who have documented descendants are also given an Arabic number, which is written to the left of their birth order letter. The numbers then begin to resemble an outline. This simplifies the tracing of all descendants of the start person through their unique numbers.
The New England Historic Genealogical Society of Boston, Massachusetts, created the register system for use in its publication, the New England Historical and Genealogical Register.
Example Register Report
