Hi Jenny: And I agree. The reason that I switched from FTM to Legacy is that Legacy is much better. However, this issue is an important one. I have also seen others discuss this on the internet. The post before yours from James may explain some of the drawbacks that I have been speaking of. Thank

Judy, I haven't. As far as I know it has always worked like this, and to be honest I prefer it. Often when adding a comment I will wish to use it again, for example if I use a child's birth certificate to establish the parents I will use it for both the father and mother. I know it is there, so

Lisa, I'm not being clear either, as others have apparently also missed what I was trying to explain.  You can do what you're asking in Legacy, IMO.  It will be different than how you did it in FTM, but I'm at a loss for how a couple of mouse clicks is "clunky."  So let me try again.  First, b

Lisa, I have re-read your original post, and I'm now uncertain what you are asking for? Do you want a list of which people are assigned to which source?  If so, the instructions Brian and I gave will both do that. Or, do you want to easily re-use a source to attach it to other people? If this
