attaching the new event to the individuals to which the event applies.
My fall-back desire is to attach a common source citation to an common event

I agree Ron. I have twice sent followon messages to my ticket number over the
past three days asking if it is something they would consider or not, and I am
getting no response (after the initial response of , "but you should be able to
do what you want to do" and my explanation that I can't).
Thanks for the response Dennis,
Millenia seems to have had a demand at some point for the Advanced Sourcing
capability, otherwise we would not even have it. Right now, advanced sourcing
can be done for other individual attributes and note fields. Quite a variety.
It can even be done for even
