A couple of days ago I copied a source to the Source Clipboard and it
contained an override (which I *very* rarely use).  After that, any new
source copied to the Clipboard continued to retain that same override
text--which had nothing to do with the newer citations.  I could find no
clue about how to clear the Overrides tab--and don't know whether it's even
necessary to clear it since I couldn't see that that override appeared on
the Output Preview or in source citations for individual records.  Clearing
the Source Clipboard didn't clear the override text; highlighting and
backspacing appeared to work, but the next time I copied a source to the
clipboard the old override text was back.

After re-starting Legacy the next day the override text was gone from the
Clipboard, but in the cases where I used a copied source along with the
unrelated override I wonder if it's going to be appearing in reports as a
nasty surprise?  Do I need to hunt it down and kill it?  Is it necessary to
clear unrelated text from the Overrides tab on the Source Clipboard, and if
so, how?

Using version 7.4.0.45, Deluxe.
