Sentence Variables
Can someone tell me where I can find a list of sentence variables to create the occasional custom sentence in any fact type.

Re: Sentence Variables
Do you mean that you want to make occasional variations in the sentence for particular individuals, without changing the default sentence as a whole? If so, you can simply edit the sentence on the Facts tab of the Property box for the individual concerned, entering whatever text you want. Any change you make there will affect only the sentence for that individual.
If you want to change the sentence for a fact type as a whole, use Help>Search Help and on the Search tab enter Template Codes, then click List Topics, then select Template Codes (top of list) and click Display.

Re: Sentence Variables
Those Template Codes apply to any customised single Fact Sentence and to the default set via Tools > Fact Types > Edit > Sentence Template.
In the Property Box open the Facts tab and select any field, then press the F1 function key to obtain Property Box: Facts tab help page, and look under The Sentence Field towards the bottom.
This topic is briefly covered in the Documentation referenced via how_to:key_features_for_newcomers|> Key Features for Newcomers. In the Book: "Getting the Most From Family Historian 5" see page 198 in the Reports chapter.
