Hi Cindy, I'm not sure that the Shared Event Notes checkboxes are bug free.
However, you should be able to choose to have the Main Event Notes only on the Main Event. You have to choose to have the Main Event Notes on the Shared Event as well when you are entering the Role by ticking the checkboxes for the notes. BUT the description field belongs to the basic main event that you are sharing. So if you've used the description field as a note field, then you'll need to move the description into the notes or edit the Shared Event Role sentence to omit [Desc]. To get to the Shared Event Sentences you click on the arrow to get the drop down list of the roles associated with the event and at the bottom is Add/Edit Roles - choose that and then the role you want to edit and you'll see the sentences.
