Jenny, Do you think that it might be there for extreme splitters :-)?

I don't think I have ever seen a need to use both the Master File ID and the Detail ID. As a rule, my Master Sources are fairly general ("GRO Birth Certificates" or "1871 England Census) so there is no one document or image which relates to the Master Source and hence no need for a File ID. In the case of those examples I quoted, and others, there will be numerous documents and/or images attached to numerous Source Details, so there the Citation File Id relates to the particular document cited in those particular Source Details. Just occasionally there will be a a single document (or similar) which is a Master Source and for which there are no distinguishing Source Details, except perhaps the date of entry. In that case, I will identify the document with a MAster Source ID. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
