Web pages produced from ancestor tree

Post by donne » Thu Jun 22, 2006 12:13 pm

My database contains information on the siblings of my ancestors. When I select an ancestor tree and export web pages from it, I also get information about these siblings, and not just people on the direct line. Is there any way to suppress this information, as in the ancestor tree printed reports?

I can't see an easy way of doing what you want.

What you have done is selected the families which are ancestral to a particular family on the Tree Area Display. Naturally this selects all the people in those families, not just the direct ancestors. You then go on to export the Web pages for the selected families.

You could use "File | Database | Copy selection" to create a new database with just the select ancestral families and then edit each family to remove the unwanted children. But it seems like a lot of work.
