Right, Jenny. I know you have never been able to copy/paste from that screen. What I am trying to say :-) is that when you OPEN the source detail, there is no source detail to copy/paste; there is only the new source writer screen, with nothing in it. There is no longer any access to the source detail as it was entered in the old system. It's there somewhere, because you can see a bit of it, but there is no way to "get at it," so to speak
[For those who have lost the thread on this complicated issue, it pertains to the merging of a source newly created by the Source Writer, with the same source previously created in v. 6. The source details go missing.] Janis Walker Gilmore -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jenny M Benson Sent: Friday, June 20, 2008 11:04 AM To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyFamilyTree.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Old Source Detail associated with newly Merged Master Sources Janis Gilmore wrote >Nothing, however, will enable access to the old source detail, in spite >of the fact that it is partially visible. > >(Gee, this is hard to describe!) It is quite normal that you cannot access that old detail because you never have been able to access or copy material from the Assigned Sources Screen. You have only ever been able to highlight a whole row with either mouse or keyboard. You can, in fact (usually) make the whole Detail visible by altering the column widths before you click on Edit and then you can copy the Detail into the SourceWriter Detail field by reading and re-typing it. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
