This is where multiple tags for the same event come in handy.
I have the following marriage tags.
mt-1c= civil marriage and has bride and groom's ages and parents
mt-1r= religious marriage and has bride and groom's ages and parents
mt-2c= civil marriage has parents of both parties but not ages
mt-2r= religious marriage has parents of both parties but not ages
mt-3c= civil marriage has ages but no parents
mt-3r= religious marriage has ages but no parents
mt-4c=civil marriage no ages or parents
mt-4r= religious marriage no ages or parents
Once they are set up and saved into a report definition there is no need to
constantly have to reconfigure reports.
btw- I'm changing my motto to "He who dies with the most tags AND report
definitions WINS!"
"True happiness lies not keeping up with the Joneses but rather in not
letting them catch up!"
