It works between roles in the same event as well as between events.
When you create the new role of wife, the default sentences are displayed. Click the Reset/Load button. You can then choose which event (can choose the same event as your current or another one) and which role in that event that you want to copy the sentences from. All 8 sentence definitions are copied from the selected role to your new role. Only difference from what you are asking is that instead of copying the old role and then renaming, you create the new role and then copy the sentences from an existing role.

I want to be able to copy customized sentences from one role to another role within the same event. Using the Residence event as an example - I create a Role : Son - in order to have my sentences read better, I have customized all 8 possible sentences ( all fields filled, place and date field filled, etc.). Now, still in the Residence event I want to create a new Role - Wife. Rather than having to go through and customize each of the eight sentences again, I am asking for the ability to copy the Son role (complete with customized sentences) and then rename it Wife. Ron Bernier Woonsocket, RI Brian, I just found the option that you are talking about. Copying the sentences works like a charm and saves a ton of time and effort.
