Jenny, Let's talk about it then. Elizabeth Mills has certainly provided the researcher with flexibility to split or lump. What specific fields would you want to be included with the master source? After deciding that, we'd need to then come up with a simple, understandable source type name for the organizational hierarchy of the selections in step 1 of the SourceWriter.

When you move to the Source Details screen, there are NO fields for Detail Information, other than Surety Level, Recorded Date and File ID. This means that one must create a new Master Source for every single e-mail one wishes to record. NO! NO! NO! that is taking splitting to the nth degree and I refuse! I've just checked out the template for Letters and I see that is the same. I haven't looked at all the templates by any means yet, but I know that several of them have full Detail Information screens which allow for one Master Source and many Details so I can't imagine why the E-mail and Letter (and other?) templates are like this. I will definitely have to revert to Basic Source System for correspondence if we can't have the option to use SourceWriter in lumping fashion and that will be a real PITA. -- 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
