The problem you will have with the split screen approach is that you cannot have both "sides" opened at the same time...so you would have to "glance" at one side...then close it and open up the side you are working on. Another alternative approach would be to assemble a series of "screen shots"...I

Good ideas, Mike. What I'd like to see is some kind of ability to see what the "Detail" source screen will contain in SW, while I'm still working on a specific "Master" screen. Sometimes I think that there is too much 'specific' info on the Master screen, (because I'm a bit of a lumper) but I d

Deborah, ISBN numbers and the total number of pages in a book are not part of standard citation practices. The specific page number(s) of your citation are on the details screen. (I'm not sure which you are referring to). If you are using a revised edition, you will want to use the revised ed

Hi Connie, What you describe is the way I've been using the medium "basic format" too. I guess I was looking for more details for a complete citation - like year of publication, number of pages, edition, ISBN number, etc. I think the way you have been modifying the template to fit your needs makes

Deborah, In Sourcewriter, the "basic format" is one of the choices under "Medium," i.e. is it an online image, a CD, a microfilm, etc. Yes, I use it for real books (hard copies). I also use it in other situations where I don't think the other choices quite fit. (It has nothing to do with the
