It doesn't sound like you are copying sources to the clipboard - If you are on the Sources screen, highlight the source you want to repeat - in the bottom left, click on the clipboards icon, then click "Copy/Overwrite Existing" - highlight another event you want to use the same Source - click the "Add clipboard source" icon (just above clipboards, looks like a "-" sign), then you can edit the detail for the different event, or you can click Save. Note: if you are also going to be repeating the same detail, you can un-check the "prompt for detail" box in the bottom left before you Save. Then you won't be bothered with it each time.

That's not clear, sorry. What I mean is this: When putting in information about a person, right now I am having to click, save, etc., for each fact, such as Name, Birth, Death, Burial, when usually it is the same source for all of those. I'm spending hours. Surely there is a better way. What am I missing? **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps!
