What Bruce did was add a new Master Event (or Event Type) with all the default event sentences. It didn't copy anything from the old Master Event to the new. You can do the same thing by skipping all the clipboard business. Just go to an individual, click "Add" to add an event, then type in an Event Type that doesn't already exist. Legacy will add it to the Master Event table with the default sentences. -- Dennis Kowallek (LTools) http://zippersoftware.com/ltools http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ltools Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergr...@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
