Hi Rob In DeLuxe you can define your own sentences for events. In the Standard Edition the Description-field is probably missing from the "Sentence", which has been reported before and should (and will I suppose) be fixed. I used the Description for the basic information, like "Project Manager" in your example, and Notes for additional info.
There is another problem with using the Descr. field. Some programs don't understand the structure Legacy uses for exporting these events in Gedcom. Recently I tried importing my file in Aldfaer, a Dutch genealogy program, and the Descr. wasn't imported. Don't know where the 'fault' is: in the export or the import. I suppose you can manually change that in the gedcom-file itself but I haven't done that. GenBox on the other hand imported the Description and Notes without any errors.
