There were some fundamental changes between the two versions. In the 1997 version, many citations began with the subject (name of the person), such as your example. Census records also come to mind. The templates in the SourceWriter were based on Evidence Explained.
Thanks, Geoff Rasmussen Millennia Corporation [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.LegacyFamilyTree.com -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kris Sent: Friday, June 06, 2008 12:16 AM To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Subject: [LegacyUG] Source Writer It's my understanding that Source Writer is designed to format source citations according to "Evidence Explained" -- which I don't have. I have "Evidence!" from 1997. I didn't think there would be much difference, but so far there is. Since no one's complained til now, I figure I must have done something wrong. Example of a death certificate cite from the 1997 book: Floyd Finley Shown, death certificate no. 59-0224 (1959), Tennessee Department of Public Health, Nashville. Cite with Source Writer: Tennessee Department of Public Health, death certificate 59-0224 (1959), Floyd Finley Shown; Tennessee Department of Public Health, Nashville. I haven't found a source yet that's cited the way I would expect. Is the 1997 book just plain obsolete? Am I missing something obvious? I know I can keep doing things the way I was "BS" (before Seven), but I was really looking forward to using the Source Writer.
