I re -read the manual again carefully and now I understand the {} brackets and how to get the misc data, but I still do not see how to include the free format field. I thought for sure it was included in some event sentences in v3.05. I could be mistaken again. Mike Thanks, a very nice feature and I figured out how to change the 'from' to a 'to' for both individual and couple events. However I couldn't get it to include the free format with %F. How does one include free format and miscelaneous entries? Why is the {from} and {to} enclosed in the shift brackets?
