Deborah: I'm staying away from it right now only because I had used something similar to it in FTM 2009 and didn't like their version and ended up switching back to their basic version. The problem with templates is that they don't always have what I need. Also, my imported sources are set up for the basic system in Legacy. I'm just having to move citation text from Citation Comments to Source Text.
When that's done, I'll probably try out the SourceWriter and decide whether to convert.

Bill, As you're fixing all your sources, are you sticking with the Basic system or moving them to SourceWriter? I've been converting all of mine to SW but find that I occasionally need to do some file maintenance to keep everything working properly. Since Legacy added SW, I'm assuming that, going forward, it will be the format more favored. What do you think? Thanks, Deborah William H. Boswell wrote: > Only if I have a source to add to them.
