Rich,
I just tried this with a few of my to-do list items and it
definitely looks workable. I don't know why I didn't think of that. It
seems the only difference than before is that the sources already searched
are near the front of the individual to-do list report instead of the end.
I can live with that.
Thank you.
Paulette

I never noticed this problem in the past, but until it is fixed, I would
just put the information of the Source in the Task Description, and cut and
paste that Source title into the field for everyone desired, with the future
details included. Then when it prints, it will show up until 1. it is fixed,
2. you have cleaned up the situation.
Now you don't have to wait, you han documented that you have half finished
stuff, and why. In my case, it may be a few months before I could get back
to it.
This workaround should work.
