Pat, Go to Reports then open Report Options for that Report go to the Format tab and there is a box for “Remove one or more leading commas from locations” and a box for “Remove two or more leading commas from locations”, pick the one you want. Russ
From: Pat Hickin Sent: Monday, December 03, 2012 12:41 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [LegacyUG] Event sentences A question: In my placenames, I frequently use a comma when I don't know the precise location, e.g. ", Surrey Co., VA, USA". When I'm creating a report is there any way to get Legacy to drop the comma? I could make the short location name read "Surrey Co., VA". But that's a lot of trouble! Unless there's some way to do a Search & Replace that I don't know about. Thanks for your ideas, Pat Russell G. Strong P. S. Check out Legacy Family Tree today!
