Hello Penny, I too have been thinking along these lines. Thanks for asking the question.
Debbie Freeman Penny wrote, I have a question which may actually not be answerable, but I'm asking it anyway. (and yes, I know sources have been done-to-death on LUG, but sources/citations are where the rubber-meets-the-road in genealogy, aren't they!?) Without asking that anyone who's had the privilege of actually previewing version 7 violate possible non-disclosure-agreements they may have signed with the nice folks at Millenia: In your opinion, is it possible to enter sources in Legacy v6 in such a way as to create the least amount of problems when we switch to v7? In other words, is there any advice on how to enter sources **now** in such a way as to ensure the greatest conformity between these currently entered source and the ones we will enter via v7? I seriously need to re-organize and re-word many sources I already have in my db. I also need to add a ton of 'em that I have on paper and in computer files. My previous gen. program was a pita for managing sources. I procrastinated, looking for "The Better Way" and found Legacy (and love it), but I've put off attacking my sources for several more months now, waiting for version 7. That's months in an old-lady's life she won't ever get back! LOL So, while I'm quite happy to wait for v 7 to be "ready" (surely nobody wants Millenia to release it until then and nobody has a clue when that will be), I've come to the conclusion I need to proceed using the latest v6. Any advice? (Fwiw, I suppose I'm a splumper or some such. I take the middle road between splitter and lumper.)
