In 5.0 you can use place styles, so my sentences print:
Bob Jones was born at John's Hospital located in Nashville, Davidson County,
TN.
Bob Jones was born in Nashville, Davidson County, TN.
Bob Jones was born in room 3 at John's Hospital located in Nashville,
Davidson County, TN.
Bob Jones was born at home.
Is this what you mean? Yes, you have to have a separate place style for each
place, but once they are set up, it is a simple matter of selecting that
place style and using it.
But I don't know how to help in version 4. Haven't used it in so long, I
can't remember how. :)
