I have a problem with Report Generator - 2.0.1.6 (Rev 2009.10.01). If an address has a comment - it displays the first line of the comment rather than the address per se. Is this an option or feature/bug ?Can anyone help. Thanks Steve

Yes it is a bug. I did read your earlier respoinse on this but then it slipped my mind (it's an age thing).This problem stems from when a contact was just that, a contact but no occupancy bit and that there is no clear indication of what the title of a contact should be. There is a 'hack' solution in that you can create a Custom Tag 'Title' for Contacts and put the desired title in there. The current pecking order for candidates to be a contact title are: 1. 'Title' custom tag, 2. Contact Summary(phone, fax, email, mobile, web page), 3.1st line of comment, 4. occupancy place, 5 Contact ID. Obviously this needs to change - may I'll add a config option.

Many thanks for the swift response. I have found a work around - simply having a blank line (carriage return) as the first line of the notes and it works. But, for me that is a lot of comments to edit ! So I may delay until there is a fix. But there is an advantage to that - it looks neater. This is an example of inserting a blank line into the notes. 
Whereas without the blank line it looks like this 
where the first line is indented by a few characters. This would seem to apply to birth/death/marriage notes. If you are going to make a change - may I suggest that you skip a line for notes fields so that they line up nicely. Likewise put one at the end, so it does run immediately into the next heading. Many thanks

I have now made a change that hopefully sorts this. see Latest English Narrative ReportThe pecking order is now: Custom 'Title' tag, Contact Summary(phone,fax,email,mobile,web), Occupancy place, 1st line of Comment, Contact ID., i.e. Occupancy place is promoted above comment. A 'Presentation Settings' Config entry 'ContactTitle' gives preferrred pecking order, default TSOCI as above.
