I have been following both these threads and have come to the conclusion that SourceWriter is not all it's cracked up to be. I stopped using SW several months ago and have been contemplating returning to Basic Sources. After following this discussion, I have decided to do that. I know most Legacy users are converting their Basic sources to SW. I am going to convert mine back to Basic. Any comments on how best to do that? Lew
