You can probably fix most misspellings by using the search and replace feature. Just type a long enough string to be sure you're only picking up the one event. I've fixed fat-fingered goofs in source details this way and it works pretty well.

Sherry,

I agree that the event clipboard was a major step in the right
direction and, in fact, use it to create pseudo linked events.  But
creating them is not the issue.  Let's say that I add 40 family
members who attended a wedding.  I create a list, add the event to the
first person, then copy it via the event clipboard to the other 39. Takes a while but saves a lot of time. Ten minutes later I realize
that I misspelled weddin and need to correct.  This time it is either
repeat the clipboard or do 40 edits.  That's my definition of bulky.
