Hi Judy, Are you using the other fields in your sentence override? Are you using the Notes section for events?
Your sentence override can still pick up the Notes.
I just tried writing a sentence override to find the limit and had a very, very long sentence before I got to the limit. As suspected it was 255 characters long. This is the same length as the event sentence definitions.
I put all explanatory detail in the notes.
Hope you find a satisfactory solution, Cathy

Hi Cathy
You have solved my problem. Thanks. My override event sentence was too long and therefore Legacy would not let me add the whole of the [Sources] insert. By shortening the sentence I can get the source superscript included. It is a pity that Legacy will not allow an unlimited sentence length in the sentence override as it does in the normal Event sentence.
