Hi Itzhak and Ron,
Maybe I am missing your point.
You can change 'Christened' to another one of many choices, including
'Occupation'.
By clicking on the 'event title' brings up a screen where you can 'Customize
Family View Information'. Then clicking on the box with the three dots in
it you can change the event to one of many.
You can change 'Christening' to 'Occupation'
Click on the 'Christening' title
Click on the box (with 3 dots) on the appropriate title
(Christening) to be changed
Scroll down to 'Event' and then 'Select'
Then choose 'Occupation' from the 'Master Event Definition
List'
And you now have 'Occupation' in place of 'Christening'.
You may also have different scenarios saved and can load them to suit your
changing needs.
Ron, I haven't checked on how this prints out on reports but suspect your
point is well taken.

Dear all,
I posted the message below four years ago.
Legacy v. 9 was released recently but it does nor appear to have addressed
my concerns below, or am I wrong?
I am impressed with Legacy but have not made it my primary genealogy
program.

I use Legacy 7.5 Deluxe Edition,
Its basic data entry (Individual's Information) window seems to be hardwired
to four initial events -- born, christened, died and buried. Other events
have to be selected from a menu. Hardly anybody in my database was
baptized, and even their circumcision dates are not particularly important
to me. Similarly, burial data is not that important to me. On the other
hand, residence and occupation data are important to me. How do I replace
"christened" and "buried" in that window with other events?
The Family window started with the same four event plus "cause of death" and
I replaced three of the events in it. This deals with display but not with
data entry.
