No. It makes nearly identical Sources. For example If my source is IL Cook Chicago 1880 census, whith all the fields filled in, then I change the name and stuff to IL Cook Chicago 1900 census, (and attach a person to each) I now have a 'template' for the Chicago census, or if I have a different place, or different date, change a few words and you have similarly worded sources, Making them sort themselves out in an organized manner.

I don't understand what this "secondary > source" is. Would this be a citation attached to a main source? I think the OP was trying to make a distinction between the quality of the two sources. One being a transcription(?) of the other, or something similar. A Primary source is usually the original document, whilst a Secondary source is one derived from a Primary source. -- Regards & a Merry Xmas to All, Mike Fry Johannesburg Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
