Thanks Sherry, I've been using "Event" in Events/Facts and that has worked well. It may not be the correct use of "Event", but I couldn't find anything else. It is labor intensive as I have to do one person at a time. Using the REPEAT button helps. I don't use Event clipboard for just 2 lines per individual.
Originally I thought I could make my own Events/Facts catagorie and call it "Facts" or ??? Would that have worked? I didn't test it as yet with the service I'm using. I don't if GEDCOM will accept it. History: For the past several years I have emailed my GEDCOM to GEDCOMP a GEDCOM comparison service. I think it is something like the GENMatcher program Legacy advertizes. GEDCOMP is a free service. Also it makes recommendations on improving/correcting my GEDCOM and gives me 5 days to make changes if I want, before GEDCOMP compares my GEDCOM to others and emails me the results. "Events" worked with GEDCOMP. Goal: I would like those who receive my matches, to be able to know when my people are my blood relatives. I've found some distance cousins. I hope to find more. BTW, do you know of any other people offering a free matching service?
