That's been passed on to the programmers. As well as the ability to change the term for other religions who don't practice baptism or christening. Some people have written who were offended by seeing those terms since it was not part of the ritual of their religion! Sincerely, Sherry Technical

Some of the other programs the baptism and christening are separate events and a person can have both. The programmers of Legacy just need to add these as separate events and this problem would go away. Even dedications and blessing could be added. Thanks, David C Abernathy Email disclaimers

This has been an known issue since Legacy first created Source Writer; Part of the situation is no program transfers exactly using Gedcom. Even Basic has some problems. It will never get better, since Gedcom can't and shouldn't try to keep up with ALL upgrades in ALL programs (immediately).
