I didn't understnd that was part of the default wording structure for the event. I have been doing mainly data imput into Legacy and am only just now seeing how the reports look. Upon reflective I should of been checking the output into reports as I had been going along. I think I have come up with a combination of default wording and then adding some condensed extra wording that doesn't clog up the report too much.
