Yep! In TMG (I know you're getting tired of hearing that) if you open the
report writer and choose a narrative report such a descendant narrative
report the report definition screen comes up and is open on the general tab.
Here you can choose fonts, what type of file you want it saved as, etc...
One of the buttons on this screen takes you to publication tools where you
can choose, among other things, how you want your source citations printed
(footnotes, endnotes, embedded, or none) below this are several check boxes
which allow you to choose if you want to include relationship sources,
disable Ibid, show sureties, supress citation details, include name sources,
or make each citation unique (this features means each source is cited once
and numbered once and all subsequent citations to that source carry the same
number...not a feature I've ever used). I'm not saying I'd like to see all
of these incorporated into GenBox but the option to print no notes and to
include or exclude relationship and name sources would be great.

Again thanks for listening,

Phil
