You can’t do that.  Two separate dates need to be two separate events.  If  you 
have two events in one date field it will format it as a range.



04 Feb 1844 – 10 Jun 1845  (meaning  through)



Or you can do this…



Bet. 04 Feb 1844 and 10 Jun 1845 (meaning between)



But you can’t  do



04 Feb 1844 and 10 Jun 1845 (meaning something happened on two different 
dates).  You have to do those as  separate events.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Event dates - date plus date



I have a Newspaper Report event in which I want to record 2 separate reports 
with different dates in the same Event window. But it doesn't allow me to enter 
"date and date", and turns it into "date - date" which is not what I want. The 
only way I can get round it is "date 'and' date" which keeps the and surrounded 
in inverted commas. This looks clumsy and wrong on my web page. Is this a bug 
or is there a way round it, apart from compounding Newspaper Report events?

Thanks

Bryan
