Hi again everyone. I could use a little help on a major addition to our family tree that I'm working on in Legacy. For some reason, when the gedcom got transferred from my cousin to my computer, an event was placed in the EVENTS table which is called Record Change and it has a date such as 30 May 2010 and various other dates. I see no reason for this date to be left as part of the database, once I put it online as it will not have any meaning for any of the users. I realize I could probably just omit it as an event when I EXPORT the gedcom to our website, but if there is a way to globally delete all those instances ahead of time, that would be helpful.
One more caveat, I had the brilliant idea that I would do a search and replace for Record Change, so I did that and had the Legacy search and replace module look for every instance of Record Change, but I changed it to a BLANK field, thinking it would delete the whole record. It did not delete the record, it just left it there with a blank or null name for the event and the date is still there. So, that being the case, I may be stuck with having to delete each and everyone individually, unless anyone can come up with a global way. I've already fixed probably 1,000 or more records and I might have almost that many to go. Thanks, if anyone can help.
