I have created a report to list all the ancestors of a specified ‘starting person’, in ascending Ahnentafel Number sequence, recording for each ancestor, the dates of their significant life events, e.g. birth, baptism, marriage, etc., together with a test (by means of the ‘text if exists’ conditional function) for the presence of the respective multimedia item for each event. The foregoing works o.k. except for multiple marriages. Irrespective of how many times a groom has married, the report always returns the date of the first marriage, the default expression for a marriage date being ‘%INDI.FAMS[1]>MARR[1].DATE:COMPACT%’. This is o.k. should the groom’s first bride be the starting person’s direct ancestor, but not if she is the 2nd, 3rd, etc. The default marriage date expression can be modified to return either the 1st or 2nd or 3rd, etc., but this is fixed, whereas the ancestor’s marriage could be any of them, dependent on which wife is the starting person’s direct ancestor. I am at a loss as to how to automatically return the correct marriage date for the groom. I have consulted the FHUG knowledge database but to no avail. Perhaps someone with technical expertise could help me. Many thanks, Bernard
