I just completed a clean reinstallation of Windows XP, and have reinstalled TMG.  Everything looks fine, except I cannot see sentence previews for most tags.  

 

There is no problem with birth, death and marriage tags - for which I use traditional formats like: [P] was born <[D]><[L]>).  Here, TMG shows a full preview of the sentence.

 

For most other tags, I long ago changed the default sentence structures to be more of an outline format (such as,  Burial: <[D],><L><M>).  Now, when I click on "Sentence" for any of these tags, the window shows the sentence structure for the tag, but the Preview box is completely blank.

 

Since everything worked fine 2 days ago, I assume I made some silly mistake.  Can anyone tell me what I need to do to be able to see these sentence previews again?

I hope that you mean: 

Burial: <[D],><[L]><[M]>

 

A sentence like that works fine for me.

By any chance do your sentences begin with carriage returns, such as [:CR:] codes?  It only takes a few of these to scroll the sentence preview down where you don't see it

Jim and Michael,

 

Jim - you are correct, I left out two sets of brackets when I typed my post.

 

Michael - thank you.  Although I am embarrassed to admit it, that was exactly the problem.

Glad we could help.  I only thought of it because you are definately not the first.
