>I think what was asked was a feature similar to Family Tree Maker's ability >to pick 2 related people and show the direct line between the 2 people. As >well, FTM can create a GEDCOM of all people in a given report, and it's >possible to pick the number of generations you want to include. For example >if you want the first 3 generations of descendants for a person, you can >easily do it. With CFT you would have to get all descendants or manually >pick the ones you want. Another useful report would be the Collapsed >Ancestor Chart as in Brother's Keeper. I have about 900 ancestors in my tree >and to print them off requires about 75 pages. With BK it requires only 1 >line per person so about 15 pages. BK also has the ability to limit >generations. These features combined with CFT's ability to send a report to >a text file would create a very useful report.
