Like "Refresh" in other contexts within computing, it causes the screen to be "re-written" using the latest information which might have become available since that screen was created. In the context of the Events screen, if the Sentence recorded at the foot of the screen doesn't reflect any changes you have made to the data, clicking on Refresh Sentence will cause it to do so. & 2) how do you change the event sentence > definition for one event for one individual w/o it changing every > other similar event in the db.

I find it helps to go to "Edit Sentence" first and copy it, then go into the Override screen, paste the Sentence and amend it. Saves you having to type the whole thing. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
