Sure you can Keith, but I don't have to as it's in the Burial Location
field, so I do not need the clutter of Burial Events.
Just out of interest, because I can think of two, or more, ways of getting
your output from the Events, which are you using (in detail please - wrt the
description, location, address fields).

Jim,
Why is your option a better method? I accept that the method of
including the cemetery, and indeed house and street names in the
Location field, and then right sorting does mean that the output is
not suitable for the Geolocation function, but then that American
function does not work for most non American countries (and as I
understand it many American ones as well). Nor do I like loads of
commas in Locations. Hence I rarely use it, and can tolerate a
temporary rewrite of a location to make it fit if I do. Furthermore
the Geolocation detabase requires modern locations and is no good
for the no longer valid historic ones. In my view, not sufficient
reason to say that 2ndCD method is better.
Also, I would be interested to know how you manage to get Legacy to
write in a report or web page "place of burial: Peel Green Cemetery,
Peel Green, Eccles, Lancashire, England", for example or even
"Forest Glade Cemetery, Wakefield, Middlesex, Masshatusetts, U.S.A."
if you prefer it

The problems with doing this are presented in the 2nd CD tutorial.
If you try to sort your localities by county or state, having the
cemetery in the city location will cause the city to sort as a
county. A better option is to use the + symbol by the burial and
then enter the cemetery location and address in the burial address
field. This way the location field can be used as designed, and the
complete address information is available.

OK, testing your method, I have a location:
Warrington Reformed Lutheren Church, Dover Twp, York Co,
Pennsylvania
So I click on Sort (which has been set to right-to-left) and then
can't find the location at all. This is why I thought that the use
of parentheses was necessary. Am I wrong?
Your list should still be alphabetical and if you slide down to the
Ps you should find all the Pennsylvanias together and near the
bottom of them Pennsylvania, York County and if you have several
locations in York Country Dover Twp is probably one of the first
and again, if you have several locations in Dover Twp I suspect
Warrington Reformed Lutheran Church is one of the last. (It's
simply a case of knowing your alphabet, you see!) --
