dthom 0 Report post Posted March 9, 2012 I'm trying to create the following sentence: [P] <was|and [PO] were> ancestors of President [W] <[M]> However upon saving with all the names in place P, PO, and W. when I go to save it consistently defaults to: [P] <was|and [PO] were> ancestors of President "[P]" <[M]> (without the quotes). That is not what I'm trying to say. What am I doing wrong? DThom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Terry Reigel 0 Report post Posted March 9, 2012 The problem is [W] is not a valid variable in a Sentence for a Principal. You want [WO] - "witness, other." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Hannah 0 Report post Posted March 9, 2012 Hi DThom, It may not be obvious, but a review of TMG Help will explain that [W] is intended to be used for this Witness in a Witness sentence. In a Principal sentence, [W] cannot identify which one of possibly several Witnesses is intended, so is replaced by the code for this Principal, i.e. [P]. Thus in a Principal sentence only [WO] has meaning, which gives a list of all the other people who are linked as Witnesses. Hope this helps, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
