There are three reports in this group of reports.  The updates of these three reports nearly match each other. They are:
 
 
 
== Ancestoral Report ==
 
[[Image:Ancestor_chart.png|thumb|Sample Ancestoral chart]]
 
This report contains extensions to the current Ancestor report that is available.  The updates are:
 
#Able to print the entire tree (prints blank boxes where missing ancestors are)
 
#can print spouses of the center person
 
#two separate displays, and a display for marriage information (in a separate box).
 
#You can choose the display that Fathers, Mothers, the Center person and his/her spouses use
 
 
 
== Personal Descendant Report ==
 
[[Image:personal_descend_tree.png|thumb|Sample Personal Descendant chart]]
 
This report is an extension to the current Descendant Report that is available. The updates are:
 
 
 
#Able to start with the selected persons parents first
 
##This will also show all siblings of the selected person
 
#level of spouses that you wish to see
 
#* 0 - Do not show spouses
 
#* 1 - Show spouses of the direct descendants
 
#* 2 - Show spouses of those spouses
 
#* 3 - etc
 
# able to compress the tree
 
# two separate displays (one for direct descendants and the other for spouses), and a display for marriage information (in a separate box).
 
# able to bold direct descendants
 
# able to not print (remove) blank lines
 
# and able to replace text within the report.
 
 
 
the '''Sample Personal Descendant chart''' that is shows was ran with the 'start with the selected persons parents first' option.  Without this option the left column will not be there and two siblings on the next column will not print.
 
 
 
== Familial Descendant Report ==
 
[[Image:descend-_chart.jpg|thumb|Sample Familiar Descendant chart]]
 
This report is an extension to the Personal Descendant Report in that it is ran off of a family.  As suck it can have two sets of grandparents.
 
 
 
In the example given (picture to the right), Mom (shown with the bottom arrow) does not have any parents in the database.  If she did, they would be displayed to the left of her and all brothers and sisters would be below her.
 
 
 
== All reports ==
 
All of these three reports share the following tabs (and almost features):
 
#The [[Graphical_Tr_Report|Tree Options tab]] contains the main options on how many columns of people will be shown
 
#The [[Graphical_Di_Report|Display tab]] shows the main display that will be used
 
#The [[Graphical_Se_Report|Secondary [display] tab]] shows secondary display that can/will be used
 
#The same [[Graphical_Pr_Report|print features]]
 
#The option to include a personalized Note to the report.
 
* Note that the '''Replace tab''' is only available in the Descendant reports. 
 
Since all of the columns are the same width, the longest line within the report dictates the entire width of the report.  As such, I have added this feature to help ''replace'' long lines with something smaller.  Examples of use are:<br />
 
"<br />
 
Heard Island and McDonald Islands/HMD<br />
 
Democratic People's Republic of Korea/PRK<br />
 
South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands/SGS<br />
 
The Democratic Republic of Congo/COD<br />
 
United States of America/USA<br />
 
"<br />
 
This also works great on removing/abbreviating long town,county,state names.
