Lisa,
I think the intent of the To Do list was to help in Research where the
source documents are NOT known--the true hunt for proof of relationships,
etc. Most people know where to look (repository), but not [yet] on which
documents the answers will be found. And I think most people on the list
(based on what I've read here for a year or two) have the documents as the
Master Sources, not a general set of documents ("wills").
It sounds like you're just verifying the sources/citations at the physical
repositories which you've already received via online searches, etc. and
entered into Legacy----as well as using a broader definition of Master
Sources.
Are you using version 5? It seems I've seen some discussion on this list of
a new "area" in version 6 for organizing your research. Maybe a version 6
user can respond...?
Thanks,
--Paula

Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] To-Do List / sources / format
Thanks, I just thought it silly to be typing out citations by hand (or
even doing copy & paste) when I already had them entered in my Master
Source list . And I had hoped to be able to print a research log, but I
see that the To-Do List really doesn't serve that purpose even though
the Help File suggested it be used for that purpose.
Thanks for the input,
Lisa
