A Technical Question of the Personal Ancestral File (PAF) use.
I am trying to print reports (in files) of the data base i have starting with my 6th grand father.

There could be a couple of issues.
One might be the word processor you are using, or perhaps the version.
If you are using the current PC version of Word, after saving the file, press the ¶ button to show the spaces, paragraph marks, and so on. You should then see the control codes for building the index if you are using Word.
Then use the Word command to insert the index. You may have to work with the formatting to make it look nice.
A better way to go would be to use PAF Companion. This does a better job of formatting the reports. You will have to buy this; the PAF and PAF Companion software used to cost about $10 on CD, but I think you can also down load it for the same price.
PAF Companion launches either from within PAF, or can be run separately.
PAF Companion also prints nice charts. I have made charts as large as 3 ft x 3 ft, saved them as pdf files and then had them printed on a large format printer at Kinko and the UPS Store.
PAF and PAF Companion are not as sophisticated as the newer software (and there is not a MAC version that works like the PC version), but for $10 it is hard to beat.
On the MAC, this software runs OK on Virtual PC, but is only a little slower.
