I have the following version of Legacy deluxe version 7.0.0.100. In the Legacy
User Guide on page 72, it explains how to convert your basic style master
source citations to the Sourcewriter template. I have tried to follow the
instructions in the book but am unable to locate the Source
Legacy never completed a source conversion tool but a very nice one is
available from a 3rd party.
See:
http://zippersoftware.com/ltools/download.html
I have been using it on dozens of old style sources.
