I just had to put my two cents in for what it is worth. The reason that I use 16 as my main program is for reports I cannot do in 2014, for example: Getting a report on all of my surnames in Ryglice, Poland that I can share wit 9 other people who are researching the same city, as well as a few surrounding towns. While I can get almost the same kind of report in 2014, I cannot: format the report to print in landscape form because of the space I need to print the info: Name---Birth Date--Marriage Date--Death Date--Spouse--Zip Code (which in the case of Poland, I use the "house number) In 2014, I cannot include any choice for the fields I want to print and will print those fields that I do have information for - except for the Spouse and House Number (Zip Code). My report in 16 prints 32 pages in landscape while 2014 prints 64 pages in portrait and I don't have all the information I want. I have tried and looked at every place in 2014. Am I missing something or some place to do this report and add the information I want and need???

Lorraine, You said: "format the report to print in landscape form because of the space I need to print the info: Name---Birth Date--Marriage Date--Death Date--Spouse--Zip Code (which in the case of Poland, I use the "house number)" I believe you CAN do this in the set up for the report you are trying to create. You can control WHAT information to include in the report, Portrait or Landscape, Font Size, which you might need to change. Have you tried any of that? And, which report are you trying to create?

Lorraine, Sorry, I hope you don't think I am picking on you, just trying to understand your issues. You then said: "My report in 16 prints 32 pages in landscape while 2014 prints 64 pages in portrait and I don't have all the information I want. I have tried and looked at every place in 2014. Am I missing something or some place to do this report and add the information I want and need???" WHAT Report are you talking about. What Information are you missing?
