I found an old post (shown below) where the user, Ruth, wanted to add the name of a spouse to an individual's event. User Graham responded to Ruth's post saying that it worked for him. I want to do the same thing.
For example, since marriage is a major event in a person's life, I'd like to create an individual event that would go something like [FirstName] married [WifeFullName]. I wonder how Graham got this to work, if anyone else has had luck doing it. C. G. Ouiment seemed to indicate it only made sense (worked) when used in Couple/Marriage events. (If there was an option to capture the marriage data [date and place], that would be great, but realise that would be a suggested enhancement.)

I think it only works if I put the event under Marriage Events. Thanks. Ruth It works for me. The only thing I can think of is that you don't have data for all fields. You could put the [CoupleFirstName] in all the sentence definitions and see if it makes a difference. When I changed the field choices at the top of the event definition window and had no data the sentence was blank.
