A question about the sources produced by the new source writer: will they
transfer correctly in a gedcom to another genealogy program? In other words,
does gedcom have any difficulty with the new style of sources compared the
to the older style?
Thanks. Jeff

I am not ready to mass change yet, but have done a few of the most
used ones. My plan is to go to the Basic Master Source List page,
pick Show list and tag on an unused number. Next Search on that tag
#. For that person found, find where the source is used, copy the
'details', then add the Source Writer to the same 'slot', pasting the
details in. Then delete the Basic Source for that instance. It may
appear in multiple 'slots', by your prior plan. There may be 'better'
ways to do this, but I will go slow and steady.
Then when the Basic Source, when using show list, finds no one, THEN
delete the source.

approx half of my sources were
entered using the old system and the rest have been entered
using SourceWriter. I am about to start re-entering the old
ones using SourceWriter and am looking for a reliable way to
combine the sources so that all of the existing citation
links remain. The"combine sources" function described in the
help file doesn't seem to work. Any ideas?
