Gail and Cathy, Thanks for sharing your paper filing system. I agree about the one useful thing from Clooz -- filing by general subject/topic does help avoid photocopies in different files. I tried the software program for three years on and off but could never really make it work for me. Right

Hi Lisa, that a clever little trick! However, you're right about effect on the sort order. I think I'm just going to leave these as is until v7 comes out and then make a final decision once I see if the templates are going to allow the Source List Name to be suppressed. Maybe there will be some

One bandaid you can try is to put the Source List Name, Author, and Title, etc. in [[double brackets]]. That seems to get the effect you want, although it changes the sort order of your master sources (the double brackets sort first). I tried just double bracketing the Author/Title, but then the
