Is there some way to copy and paste the text  in your "Outline
Descendant Tree" to an E-mail message?
Thanks,
Jim

While I suppose what I'm going to say may not apply to some email
software, copying the Outline Decendant Tree to email should be about
as straight forward as it gets.

[1] Open your FTM to the Outline Decendant Tree page.
[2] Ffrom the EDIT options [on the menu bar] select COPY OUTLINE
DECENDANT TREE.
[3] Open your email software and paste the information you have copied
into the body of an eamail.

Hope that helps.

Yes, you pull up your Outline Descendant Tree and copy to clipboard and
then open it up in MS Word or Works buy going to edit and choose paste.
Then you can do adjustments or anything there before you save it as
.text . Then you attach it to your email as an Attachment, but you need
to know where you saved the text file to be able to attach it. There
might be an easier way that someone else might know of, but that is the
way I have done it. You might save the email to Send Later and then go
back and look at it before you send it to see if it is opened up on the
email post. Hope this helps you.

All the editing, which you prefer to call "adjustments" can be just as
efficiently done right in the body of the email. Why go to all the
problem of opening up another application? Why inconvenience yourself
_AND_ the person you're sending email to by attaching a file when
everything could have been done in the body of the email itself?

Okay,  thanks I'll keep that in mind. I haven't tried to put anything on a
email right from FTM, I didn't know it could be done. I tried to do
"editing" to something I put on a email one time and it wouldn't work but
that was the first time I really ever emailed something to someone. I
probably just wasn't doing something right. Ill try it next time like you
said especially if it easier!!. I like short cuts. Thanks again for the
information. Oh! by the way when I wrote "adjustments", I just went blank
for a moment and couldn't think of the right word.

P.S. "No I'm not blonde either" I just had what they call a brain fart!!

I have to use an extra step but still get same results. I have to paste
the chosen text to my word processor first. Then I can copy and paste to
an Email.

Why? ??????

Hello - I'm new to the list and to genealogy.

I'm looking for ALISON, CROXTON JOHNSON, GERMAN, HAUGHTON - all connected
round about 1750 - 1880 in Lancashire England and/or Cheshire, England.
They were great travellers though.

These are also connected with PARK HALL, CHORLEY, LANCASHIRE.

Also any info on ARCHIBALD ALISON 1792-1867 - believed to be an historian.

Also on RICHARD ALISON (1915ish-1982) - Desert Rat WW2, worked for Natural
History Museum of Chicago at some point probably pre-WW2, discovered a new
species of ring-tailed lemur and was in National Geographic - at least 45
years ago, probably, more;  Canadian citizen in 1952ish.

Any information gratefully received.  Thank you.
