LDS Events are imported from and exported to Gedcom files.

To add an LDS Event for Baptism, Christening, Endowment or Sealing to Parents

1. In the main window click on the Events tab at the bottom of the screen.

2. In the bottom left hand corner press the [+] button to add an event and select an LDS Event.

In the Events dialog you will notice that some additional fields are now visible for LDS Status and LDS Temple. Press the pink help button if you need them explained.
If you have entered LDS Status and Temple info then it will now be also be displayed as a footnote on the Events Panel.


To add an LDS Spouse Sealing Event

1. In the main window click on the Family tab at the bottom of the screen.

2. Just to the left of the wife's name click on the large up-arrow - above the dividing line. This opens the Family Dialog.

3. Click on the [+] button for Other Marriage Events and select LDS Spouse Sealing.


After they have been added the LDS Event information will be displayed and may be edited.

From experience, when importing from TNG, the Seal to Parents field will get dropped. This is not a problem with iFamilyForTiger. It happens with every program I export to from TNG. I'm not sure exactly what the problem is.

So if anyone is importing from TNG, keep an eye out for this problem.
