Try this. Go to File > New family file, and give it a name. In the new blank family go to View > Master lists > Sources > Options > Import Lists. Browse to the family file with all the sources and other lists you want and open it (this puts the file path into the top box). Check the boxes for the lists you want to import and > Import Lists. Your new file will now have all the Master Sources, Locations, event definition and anything else you want to import. You can get to the same procedure through the Locations master list. Boyd

Sent: Wednesday, 29 October 2008 2:40 p.m. To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Subject: [LegacyUG] copy master sources to new family file I have a bunch of people that are involved in my current research. I don't know yet how they all connect so can't really put them in my tree. However I have a lot of data about them and would like to put them somewhere. Someone suggested I start a new family file of just these people and then connect them when I can. As these people come from the same area as my already connected people, I would like to copy all my master sources to the new file so I don't have to re-enter them again. I can't figure out how to do that. BTW - is starting a separate family file the way you all deal with unconnected people too? Do you have any other suggestions??
