Bottom Line.....

I want a list of names and the contents of the memo field of One
SpecificTag...... Can it be done?

Problem details ...

I have a book, several hundred pages, that is basically a narrative report
of related families. It is not indexed. I am entering all of the folks -
listed and linked in a TMG project.

As I do this, I would like to create something resembling an index. Any
person may be listed on multiple pages. Any person may have multiple
"Name-Var"s.

I have created a Y/N flag for each entry that is in the book.

I have created a tag [RelatedBook] entering the page data in the memo field.
My thought was to create a list-of report that only contains the name of the
person and the details of this specific tag.

Example of the report I want...

NameDOBDOD[RelatedBook]
Jane Smith3-Jul-184310-Oct-189945,123,241
Tom Thomas8-Dec-180422-Jan-18563,75,200,341


BUT...

When I try to do a 'list of names' or a list of people report, I can't
select an appropriate tag as an output column.

Any suggestions? Did I overlook something? Do I need to use a different
approach entirely?

Thanks, Lanny
