Brian, That IS the ticket and will work just fine. Looks like I may have tried it once before and simply forgotten. Thanks for the quick reply.

The whole point of the multi-tab clipboard was to allow a use to load a set of sources which they can apply simultaneously. To achieve what you want to do (have multiple sources and able to choose a single one for use) you can use the Save Clipboard feature. You can save up to ten clipboards. You would first set your clipboard to hold only one source at a time. Load the Ancestry Record to the clipboard then save that clipboard in one of the 10 slots. Set up the FamilySearch source on the clipboard and save it in a second slot. Now when you want to use one of those sources, open your clipboard. Load the source you want to use then apply it to the records.
