Ward: I'm probably missing something because I have yet to fathom any use for the subsequent citation. If many data fields are linked to the same citation, say #1, then each instance in a report would be keyed to the footnote (or endnote) #1, so how or when would the subsequent citation come into play? I think there would be no need. As you say, with the source-related bugs in report generation it's impossible to see how it would work but I'm also curious about the final (corrected) product.

Detail Source I wonder about this. As discussed a few months ago, the system for printing the initial citation and then subsequent (briefer) citations is very buggy. But once it is fixed, what can we expect? How will Legacy detect that a citation is 'subsequent'? Will it compare every byte with what has already been cited? Or will it somehow keep track of source details that were copied/placed via the clipboard (and not edited after)?
