That's where the Sentence Override tab, found in Edit Event, is used for.  When 
you have no address, click on Edit Event Sentence Definition and highlight and 
copy the definition that you want, click Cancel (in case you did something of 
which you are unaware).

Click on Sentence Override and paste the sentence definition that you copied.  
Check the result found below Refresh Sentence/Edit Sentence Definition.  By 
tweaking the Sentence Override items, you can get the result to read exactly as 
you want.

I use this method frequently.  It is easy, simple, and perfect for the times 
when there is a variation in what you are inputting.

  Subject: [LegacyUG] Problem using [Address] in Legacy sentence structures


  I am playing around with using "City, County, State, Country" as the
  four comma delimited Location-variables; and using [Address] as the name
  of the place, or the address of the place, or ???????

  1) I tried to change the Legacy Residence (RESI) fact sentence using the
  following sentence structure:

  [Date] [HeShe] had a residence [:if [Notes]::with [Notes]]at [Address]
  [inPlace].[Sources]

  This structure seems to work as long as their is an [Address]; but when
  the [Address] is missing .... the sentence structure puts a extra "at"
  in the sentence.

  After checking the Legacy Help File; I find, to my disappointment, that
  the "[:if " structure only works with four variables. [Address] is not
  one of them!

  Question: Has this Legacy problem been fixed or is their a sentence
  structure I can use that will work?

  Thanks,
  David in Mesa, Arizona
