As I have found the Source Type similarly useless, I add a description
to the Source List Name (Shown in Master Source list) for easier sorting
of categories. Now, if I could just remember what I listed under
which! A way to search Sources would be very useful, especially as more
and more accumulate. If you'd like to see a more visual representation
of this method:

Hi Kirsten,
Currently the "Master Source Type" does very little and isn't printed.
I mostly don't bother to fill it in. It would be helpful if you could
sort your Source List on type but you can't even do that.
If filled in and you then click the "Assistant" button, you get a
different dialogue depending on the Source type chosen. Perhaps this
will be more extensive in Legacy 7 and I'll begin using the Type
field. Currently I don't find the Assistant sufficiently helpful.
It's not a relevant part of a Source Citation so I wouldn't expect it
ever to print in a Bibliography or Citations list.
However, it would be useful to be able to print out a Source Report
ordered by Type.

Under what circumstances does the "Master Source Type" print in source
citations? I have made selections from the list for most of my master
sources but don't see that information included in the citations. Is
there
an option somewhere that causes the *type* to print or not print? If
so, I
haven't been able to find it and don't see a clue in Help.
