Hi Donna,
Susan has told you why you may have some duplicates and a way to fix this.
A way to stop this happening is to set up the source and source detail on the Source Clipboard and use the Source Clipboard to add it each time it is appropriate.
If you really want to get rid of all Source Details in Reports, you can reset all those ticks by going to Options > Customise - Sources Tab
untick the Include source details on source citations on reports - and click the Reset button. If it does what it says, this will work for you. I usually try things before posting to make sure it's currently working as expected but I'm not about to try this one as I have a deliberate mix of ticked and unticked source detail. I've used it in the past.
I would like an override button on reports so that for some reports I could say in effect - forget the ticks and don't print any source details, text, comments - or forget the ticks - print all source details complete with detail text, comments
The only way to do this currently is to export to a temporary file and reset them.
I'd also like to be able to reset the ticks on the Source Detail tabs just for a particular Master Source rather than all Sources. You can probably do this in Access but I'm not an experienced Access user.
Cheers, Cathy

I would like to know if there is a way to stop the sources from repeating themselves on the Source Citation sheet besides the time consuming task of going back and un-checking the little box on the detail file. I printed it off for a family and had 22 pages of material 13 of which were sources most of them duplicates of the one above. It did say Ibid but then it went on to repeat the complete source. It would be nice if it just said Ibid. Is there a way to make this occur without the time consuming process?
