Margaret,
You shouldn't have Birth in the Event/Fact section unless you are adding
Alternate data you have found in Alt. Birth or create an event called
Disproven Birth as you'll see in the Sample file.
Unfortunately there is no way to remove an event until it isn't used by
anyone. You need to remove them one by one.
The easiest way is to go to View > Master Lists > Event Definition.
Highlight the relevant Event and then click Show List.
Turn the Show List into a Search List and then close out of the Master List.
You will be asked if you want to see the Search list. Say yes.
Then in the Search List/Name List, bring the Event tab on the right to
the front and move down the list in the left removing the Event from
each person as you go.
To remove them from your reports at one stroke, go to the Event
Definition for this Birth event you've added and check to make it
Private. Then if you don't override Master Events marked private in the
Privacy Options, they won't be in reports. But you want to get them out
of your database. You shouldn't have an Event/Fact as well as the entry
in the top section of the Individual Information screen. If you want to
see everything in date order, switch to the Chronology View.

No. I just did it to see what happened.

Are you creating a birth event instead of using the default birth
date/place event?

No, there is nothing in the birth field. In "Event/Fact" it has
"birth" - but nothing else - no date or place etc. I just
experimented with a person who does not have this issue and added an
Event/Fact of birth. Now it lights up the Event icon under that
person's name. I just don't know how to remove that Event/Fact" other
then doing each person individually. I was just wondering if there
was a way to removed all of them who do not have any information at all.
Thanks
Margaret

I tried to duplicate this without success. My Descendant Book report
only included a birth entry if I entered actual data such as a date
and or place. Do you have something entered in the Birth field for
that child? Legacy would not even include a source unless there was
data entered. I tried entering only a source in case Legacy would add
Birth so it could use that as a placeholder for the source citation.
