What I have done is create a new Source with the SourceWriter, copying
information from an existing Source. Then I highlight the old Source,
click on "Combine Highlighted Source with Another in List...", highlight
the new Source created with SourceWriter and click the Combine button
again.
All instances of the "old" Source will be changed to the "new" Source.
Most (all?) of the information in Source Details will be copied over to
the new version of Source Details, but you will need to check each one if
you want to add anything or change the layout at all.

My pet peeve with the source combining process is that it is easy to combine
the wrong way. I would prefer it work similar to merging individuals, where
both records were displayed side by side, it is clear which is primary and
which is secondary, and you can see what information will be maintained,
what will be added, and what may still need to be edited. With source
combining I never remember whether it is the first or second that is kept.
