Did you get any replies to this, Mary? I don't recall seeing any, and kept your post so I could reply when I had the opportunity (having been away a few days this week).
My main thought with reading your query was to wonder if you had seen that you can edit a sentence definition for a one-time use, ie for that one instance of an event for that one person? When you have an event open, look for the "Sentence Override" tab, alongside the Notes one. You may find that useful in some of your situations. Hope this helps. :-) Kind Regards, Wendy Mary LeClerc said the following on 25/06/2013 10:54 a.m.: > This may be available and I just don't realize it. > I can spend what seems like hours decided on just the perfect > formatting for the sentence wording on various events.
