Rick,

You are welcome.

Yes, but don't have it with me right now. I will have to look when I get home.

Thanks very much for the help,

Rick,

It's easiest for this type of "conversation" to start a new Discussion, as suggested above.

The report you generated below is in Version 2010.

If you look as the list of 3 reports, you will notice that there are Several Genealogy Reports, not just the one you posted.

Have you looked at the Publish Workspace in 2010?

Rick,

Which Genealogy Report are you missing? What is it's name? I think that the only report that was in Version 16 and it NOT in 2010 is the NGS Quarterly report. But, 2010 has a number of reports that Version 16 (and earlier) did not have.

Comment by Rick Wickwire on January 2, 2010 at 8:58am
Thanks Russ, I will look again. What I found previously was a different type of report. I have never been able to find exactly the same one that is in 2006, but I will certainly search some more.

Rick,

Most, if not all, versions of Family Tree Maker Genealogy Reports. All reports in version 2010 are in the Publish Workspace.
