Thanks Ron,
My husband is also periodically trying to get me to download other
text editors. I really have never felt the need. Notepad works fine
for the odd times I need to edit text and if I want something more
sophisticated, I'd rather use Word, which I use a lot, and then save as text.
I also use Turbonote - one of the Sticky Note programs - for quick
notes and alarms and for transcribing stuff...
and Clipmate which captures everything put on the Windows Clipboard
for later use and can be used as a freeform database of bits and
pieces. I do some minor editing in Clipmate.

Cathy,
I do not know Access but I take it it has a Search & Replace
facility so should be pretty fast in changing Source Names. However,
if you are going to look at changing the details in a Gedcom as
text, and for those who do not have Access, I would suggest
downloading the free program PSPad from: http://www.pspad.com/en/
which is basically a text editor.
Personally, I do not change the sources, other than to merge them
into mine, as I verify all myself before accepting them and only use
PSPad for writing html etc.
