Robert: The new vewion I plan to post this weekend I hope will be easier to follow. The old version was in outline format, but without indents. That is just the way TMG generates the report I and don't believe there is an option for indenting each generation. I have found a different report format that I think will be easier to read. Regarding the names, I used the spelling "Beckelhymer" throughout originally when I set up the database and continue to do so. In the future, I plan to use instead the version of the name that each descendant most commonly used. That is a long ways down in the queue, however, behind a lot of other inputting of new data that I have yet to do, most notably, a lot of the sources have yet to be entered for each piece of data. I think that is of higher priority than getting the spelling right.
