JL,
I don't think it works that way. Once the Source Detail has been set up an applied to more than one Event, I am pretty sure that adding an image to the Detail Multimedia will only add it for that Event for that individual. This seems to be confirmed in Lena's post.

You should be able to link the image to the multimedia tab when you're setting up Source Detail. Then it's on the clipboard for every event you use that Source for. --- JL Beeken JLog - simple computer technology for genealogists http://www.jgen.ws/jlog/ On 9/1/2012 2:13 PM, Bain Family wrote: > I am using 7.5.0.185 (paid version). > > Using SourceWriter, I added a Master Source (a newspaper) and transcribed > an > obituary into the Detail section.
