Keith, You can choose to define any event as private. If you mark census as a private event, it will not print in reports unless you choose to print "private events" in your reports.
To define any event as private, start at the top toolbar selecting View - Master Lists - Event Definition. Select your event and choose edit. There is a small box to click to mark that event private. To print private events in a report, start at the toolbar with the icons by selecting the Report icon - Report options - Include Tab. Here you'll find 2 options, one to Include events marked "Private" and one to include master events marked "Private". I don't know the difference between an event & a master event. When I add an event, I always add using the master event list. One comment from a previous post by Geoff - Events are now labeled Events/Facts on the Individual Information screen. but They print on reports as Events. I hope Legacy 7 will use the same header Events/Facts (or some other defined) in printed reports to match the Individual Information screen.

That said - I have over 3000 persons with #### Census -US (depending on year) already entered as EVENTS. And I believe they contain good information. My question - is there a way to prevent an event (perhaps a check box that I have missed) from showing up on reports - especially the narrative type reports? What I would like to do is SLOWLY add the Residence, etc. to the EVENTS - but leave the CENSUS -- just have them NOT print. They would be there for electronic reference and available for printing should I need them in the future. Ideas & comments?
