Maybe a stupid question but...

Can I index a birth as a baptism? The document I'm working with clearly has the details of a birth, but on the pulldown menu my only options are baptism, marriage, or burial. Thanks!

    The Project Instructions tell you to index births. If you select Baptism as the Entry Type you will need to <Blank> the Baptism Date Fields but enter data in to those for Birth Day/Month/Year at the bottom.
