Dave: I understand what you are trying to say. I too use a book to source different information on various pages. You are right, version 6 use to show, for example the birth source in "Jefferson County History and Atlas" and the detail "page xx" and then the death would be sourced as "Ibid, page yy." This looks nice on reports. Version 7 nolonger uses the "Ibid". And it does repeat the first detail used completely neglecting the following detail information. This has got to be a serious bug!!

The multiples sources look fine to me on reports. Blah, blah, blah, page 1. Ibid. page 2. At least in the previous version. I haven't looked at the reports in version 7 because I can't seem to get multiple entries in version 7. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Elizabeth Richardson Sent: Friday, November 28, 2008 1:45 PM To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Citing a Source multiple times So how does this multiple sourcing appear in a report? And, by the way, I can use the same source for different pieces of data (birth date, death date for example) for one person and cite that source multiple times with different detail, but that certainly isn't what I'm understanding you to be saying.

I just realized that I often do this. I might have a source of "Aunt Sally". She might give me someone's birthdate in a letter on one date, and the person's birthplace in a follow-up letter on a later date. I record this as the same source with 2 different sets of details. Since I don't have V7 installed at the moment I can't tell if this behavior is configurable (nor can I confirm it). But I certainly wouldn't appreciate it. -- Dennis Kowallek Genealogy Website & Custom Programming http://consulting.kowallekfamily.com/ 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 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
