Howard, Two suggestions to try:
First, in the master source list, verify that you haven't accidentally checked any of the boxes within the "Show only" section on the right side (beneath the "Help button"). To display all of your master sources, every box needs to be un-checked. You might be inadvertently hiding your source from view by having one of them active. This happens to people quite regularly! Second, if that does not work, try a check/repair (File > File Maintenance > Check/repair) to verify there isn't an internal error in your database.
