I just printed a Descendants report to Pages (my altered adding burial info) and on looking it over there seems to at least two problems.  The only addition to the new Descendants report was adding "BURI", "is buried" in the appropriate place at the beginning of the script.  Nothing else was added or changed.

First is that the spousal birth information does not include place of birth which is odd since the death includes place.  However, all places printed show the ADDR information at the end of the PLAC information when it should be at the beginning.  This is particularly bothersome since I/We are using ADDR to note the cemetery's name and printing it after the location detracts from its overall effectiveness.

Second is that the BURI information is not shown for the spouse, only for the principal individual.  This is particularly bothersome where they are not buried together which is often a considerable distance from the first death/burial.

I can still run the old modified script from the ScriptEditor which shows spousal information properly.  However, I also made another slight modification to that script but offhand do not remember its exact nature.

Will there be a "FIX" for these problems sometime in the near future?

Just found out what my other change was to the generic Descendants report.  I just printed a generic report (new script) which does not print any spousal information whatsoever after the marriage information and I was attempting to print the birth, death, and parental information.
