I would like to print out a life list in tax. order. So far I've only found ways that are in the order I saw the birds. How do I do this?

Thanks
Terry

This is very easy. I will start by editing a Life List template that prints in seen order and convert it to taxonomic order.

By default, all reports in BD sort in taxonomic order unless overridden.

1) select the ABA Life List template from the template tree


2) Click on the Design button
3) Click on the Output Columns button
4) You will see that the Life Number column has a specified sort (this overrides the default taxonomic sort)

You will want to clear that by clicking in the Sort field for Life Number and selecting the blank item.


5) Click Done to return to the designer main window
6) Click Preview/Print and Voila!
