Jenny,
You don't have to retype them all over again. Just open the little book icon
in the persons entry where you typed the source detail, then just highlight
the entry that you want and then click on the littlenote pad icon to copy
source to clipboard. Then open up the clipboard and it will be there with
the same detail that you want. If you need to cite the same source but want
to add different details to different people then check the little box that
says "prompt for detail" so that when you click on the tool to attach the
source then the source detail will pop back up so you can change the details
for that source.
Hope that helps
Russ Strong

something? If not does anyone else consider adding this function helpful?
I don't think you've missed anything. I too have often wished I could
copy an existing citation to the Source Clipboard so I could use it again.
Usually it's because I have typed all the Source Details for one person's
entry and then realise I should have typed them into the Source Clipboard
because I need to use them for several more people, so I have to type them
all over again in the SC.
