Bryan, thanks for that workaround idea! I fooled around with the format and came to the same conclusion you did. When I come across a new type of event, it's always hard to find just the right words that will go with anything I find for that event. However, now that an Event Report is available, I can check and make sure my wording works for all the events I entered way back when. I used to sometimes edit event sentences, not realizing that they might not sound right with previously entered events of the same type!

Thanks again for everyone's help and ideas!

I did a few experiments with the [He/She] and the only place it will capitalize the He or She is when this is the FIRST element in the sentence. I did think of your idea Paula but putting a period after the first sentence ie. between the [Sources] and the [He/She] did not help. I even tried using the [CR] code to insert a carriage return to start a new line but the [He/She] was still in lower case. I guess the programmers never thought about an event sentence construct that was, in fact, more than one sentence.
Sentence 1 [FirstName] appeared on the [Date] rent roll [~inPlace].[Sources]
Sentence 2 [HeShe] was listed as "[Notes]."

One work around that would still be a proper sentence would be [FirstName] appeared on the [Date] rent roll [~inPlace] where [HeShe] was listed as "[Notes]." [Sources]

In that construct the non-capital he/she would be correct.

I'll bet the capitalization hinges on the word following a period, which in your example it does not. ??? --Paula Legacy User Group Etiquette guidelines can be found at:
