You can have Legacy tell you whom you sourced. Try this: 1. Open Legacy and the family file. 2. Goto View >> Master Lists >> Source. 3. Select a source that you want to see to whom it was applied to. Do this by highlighting the source. 4. Look to the right and find a button labeled "Show List." Click it and it will show you everyone you have applied this source to.

I think I understand it, but then I have doubts. First let me thank Chap and Robert for their knowledgable answers. Secondly, I don't know who I've sourced wrong until I happen to "fall" over it. See, I'm not confused. <BG> Somehow I have sourced the 1901 Canadian Census as 1881. I can't just edit the wrong one and 'save changes to ALL references of this master source" because I do have 1881 sources, can I??. If I edit the 1881 (incorrect source attached to 1901) , change it to 1901, and apply changes to a NEW copy of this master source, then I'll end up with many 1901 sources. Am I making any sense. If not I'll try to be a bit clearer.
