Thanks, Brian. I'm not sure I made my question very clear. I was referring to your explanation that if you choose to share a standard census event with other people, then "household member" would automatically be inserted in the description field for those additional people. I was expecting that Legacy will not do that if I share a census event I have created. Since it's a custom event, I imagined Legacy would have no way of knowing it should treat it as a census unless the programming is sophisticated enough to recognize I've retained the word "census" in my name. I label mine "1810 U.S. Census", "1820 U.S. Census", etc. I would think there is no reason for Legacy to treat those any differently than it my event were named "Vacation Taken" (I don't really have an event named that--trying to illustrate my point). On the other hand I can see that it is a fairly straightforward programming task for the program to treat the standard census event as you described. Is my question any clearer, or have I just been more confusing?
