Stewart, many thanks for your detailed response to my query. I have tried your suggestion and it works, but it does look a little odd :-) (Just in case you were wondering, I did back up everything before I started messing around!) > However, fundamentally - why do this?

I want to be able to add extra details such as 'son of Mary' or 'brought to church ...' and so on so that they print in 'book' style. If I add this information as a separate 'christening event' it is displayed after the main information about the individual, and I was hoping to be able to include it with the rest of the christening details. Unfortunately, this doesn't work even using 'Christening - Description'. Could I get this result using a tag? Thanks again for your time, Rosemary
