Thank you for explaining this because I was confused about applying five sources at once. I've never used this nor do I think I ever will. I do save some clipboard items then apply each of them as needed then delete them. This sounds like a feature that should have stayed gone. It sounds like an accident waiting to happen when someone inadvertently goes to apply what they think is one source then applies up to five.

But assuming you did, you'd want to go into Customise > Sources and set 7.5 Clipboard capacity to "Allow up to five sources at once on the Source Clipboard". Then when you open the Source Clipboard, you will see "Source 1", "Source 2", etc. Set up the first source, then click on "Source 2" and set up the second one, and so on. When you've set up as many sources (up to five) as you need, you can then apply those sources to any item of data you enter into your database. You can only apply all the set-up sources together, you can't pick and choose which one you'll use. Personally, I've not yet come across any situation where I'd find this useful - but I'm sure that day will come. When this option was removed a while back there were apparently many complaints, so it has been reinstated. If you don't want to see the five source tabs in the Source Clipboard, go to 7.5 Clipboard capacity and select "Only allow one source on the Source Clipboard" - that's the option I have selected for now, until such time as I find a need to apply more than one source at a time. Hope this helps. :-) Wendy 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).
