Is there a way to eliminate Legacy's sentence structure for events. I
would like to use my own wording in the description without Legacy
adding words.
You can't do away with Legacy's sentences altogether, but you can do the
next best thing.
If you are using all the fields, change the sentence structure for each
Event to something like "[EventName] [Desc] [Date] [Place][Sources]".
You can change the order, include punctuation or omit fields as
appropriate.
If you only use Event Name and then put all the information about the
Event in Notes, then use the "If Desc, Date and Place are empty" field
and enter "[EventName][Notes][Sources]". (Without the quotation marks,
of course.)
It will take a little while to set up the sentences if you use a lot of
Event Names, but once it is done your Events will be in exactly the
format you want.
