Ira, I heva read the message below BUT: How should we update our language and Standard event files now (in version 2.29x)? I had version 2.27x, did not install 2.28x, and just installed 2.29x. When I copied my own language and standard events files over yours, I received an error message. So far so good, so then I re-installed 2.29x with your files, but now my custom added standard events are replaced by different ones! What to do next to get my custom events back?
