Marie,
I'm with you!! (Fields for birth, marr, death, separate fields for dates
(month, Day, Year and places, Location, city, county, state, country)
I am so surprised that these fields haven't already been added !!
I really Hope they are in the next big upgrade!

I'm still waiting for the ability to have separate field for day, month,
year of birth, death and marriage as well as fields for city, county and state.
I used to have them way back in the Roots/Visual Roots times.
So I do a work around. Legacy keeps track of my data.
All
The fields you are requesting are already present in the Legacy database.
Location currently has 9 fields, not just the four being mentioned. As for
dates, an example is the birth date word which is 18 characters long . the
first character specifies the prefix such as Est, Abt, Bef, Between, etc. The
second character is probably a control for A.D. /B.C. (I don't have any B.C.
dates) followed by ddmmyyyy as 8 characters followed by another set of ddmmyyyy
that is used when a second date specifies a range (ie. Between). Ltools is a
useful program for inspecting the database structure and is easier to use than
the free Libre Base. Legacy translates this date word back into the readable
format you request.
