Phil,

Perhaps I am a bit confused. First, are you speaking of TMG 4 or 5? I see no
report writer in TMG5, which has only a Descendent Indented Narrative in the
partial set of reports currently available. Selecting that report opens a
reports definition dialog from which you select Options.

In Genbox, if I select Reports > Descendent Narrative > Basic, that opens a
DESCENDANT Report Options dialog with 10 tabs. Have you looked at the
Content tab for this report? I see options for notes (both General and
Research), events (details and general), even citations (in text and
otherwise). On the Back tab, I found note setup as endnotes or footnotes and
more. Are these not the same options you seek?

Could you perhaps be a bit more precise in what report options you seek. If
I am reading your post correctly, you are saying that TMG contains the list
of options you identified, while Genbox does not contain those options. Am I
understanding your post correctly?

Best,

Denise L. Moss-Fritch
