Priscilla, First you have to understand that there are two parts that need to be looked at.
1. Event Definitions are where the sentence is formatted using a combination of entered text and field definitions which are filled in when the sentence is used. The fields are the parts of the sentence enclosed by square brackets [FirstHeShe] for example. The fields derive their contents from the person or marriage to which the event belongs and the details entered for that event like the event date, place, notes, description etc. 2. The event options Sherry mentioned are related to reports and how events are included in them. When you first open a report you will see various settings and a Report Options button to select features for the report. The Include tab of the Report Options lets you decide whether the report will include Events or not and has a button to open a list of Event Options like whether to include Notes or not, what to include with shared events etc. On the Format tab of the Report Options there is a button to select the Event Format. Here you can select either a sentence form along with various ways to display the events, as bullet points, numbered sub paragraphs etc. or to use a List style for events which uses an event field oriented display like Census: 1810, place, Notes (If notes are requested on the event settings).
