Many thanks Everyone, including Robert57p, for all your help. I'll probably get along fine this time by keeping the Master Event Definition List open beside me and checking and updating my events and facts against that. Good idea of Robert's to distinguish my inventions. But I'll make note of Jim's advice. It will be useful for other clean-ups. Gillian

Legacy starts with a few built-in lists. These include common Source Types, Event Definitions, Marriage Statuses, Child Statuses, To-Do Categories, and Temple Names. To restore master lists to their original contents: 1. Click on File > File Maintenance > List Cleanup. 2. The first screen you will advise yo to backup. Click the Proceed button. 3. The next screen is the main Master Lists Cleanup screen. 4. Under "Keep/Restore Original Values for" select Event Definitions by clicking on its checkbox. 5. Click the Proceed button and confirm with Yes that you want to reset the Event Sentences you their default wording. 6. When finished click the OK button.
