Sherry, Any changes coming in the new version that would allow the (Event) Address to be used with the IF statement?
so that [heshe] is listed in the [EventName] [inPlace] [:IF [Address] :: ([Address])][:IF [Desc] :: ([Desc])][CR][Notes] would result with He is listed in the 1900 Census in Chicago, Cook County, Illinois, USA (123 Main St.) (ED001, page 20b) John Doe age 45. Right now you cant use the IF Statement for the address field. It can only be used for the Desc, Date, Place or Notes field.
