Finally had a chance to test this one out.
In the Descendent Book (is that also "Register" ?), I changed the first
subheading to be exactly what Dave typed below
Noted events in [his/her] life [::are::were]:
and that's exactly what I got in my report, well almost:
Noted events in his life [::are::were]:
What am I missing with this conditional logic? Or does "You can now use..."
mean "A beta tester can now use..." or "You can use when you get the next
update.." ?
Many thanks in advance,
