There is a similar "problem" with the linked fields such as Forename and Surname, Date and Place of Birth, Date and Place of Death etc. Very often one has one or more Sources which relate to only of the fields in addition to one or more which relate to both. I think I used to put "relates to Forename only" or "relates to Date of Death only" in the Comments field of the Citation, but I don't bother now. If anyone gets to look at my Sources they can work it out for themselves! The case of Shared Events is slightly different in that Sources might be attached to an Event where they have no relevance at all. Another reason why I think Shared Events are not entirely A Good Thing. Certainly I see little advantage in them if one has to go into each person's record and add Notes which are only specific to that person. I shall probably use Shared Events, but sparingly. -- 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).
