Thanks Ward. I will look up the thread.
How about the old style sources? Do they export correctly to other programs
and via gedcom?

No, they will not transfer correctly, even back into Legacy. Yes,
GEDCOM has difficulty.
I mentioned this on-list only 8 days ago. For details, see my post in
the archive on 25 June, titled 'Incomplete Export of Source Details'.
Some types of sources will survive this process better than others,
depending on how much the master and detail fields are interspersed.

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
