DeDe (and Gail), That's exactly what I did, except with a census source. Gail, is that what you did when you tried to combine an old source with a new source, and lost the citation detail?
Just trying to pinpoint the problem, possibly to a particular template. It's encouraging to know that DeDe was successful at this.

I had BMD info for each particular person in the Source Details. I also had a paragraph from the Preface in the Master Source Text/Comments. >From the Master Source List, I created a new source using the SourceWriter Template. I rewrote the Master Source Text, editing just a little from what I had written originally. As far as I can remember now, I clicked on the new source first, chose "Combine Highlighted Source" then clicked on the old source and then clicked again. This source was attached to several areas, Name, Birth, Marriage, and some Residence events. I have just checked one more time and all the details are still there, just as I entered them on Legacy 6. Hope this helps. Dede On Thu, Jun 19, 2008 at 6:36 AM, Janis Gilmore <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Dede, > > Can you tell me exactly what you did?
