I have the same problem, for now I add to the persons' general notes something like BIRTH- the day of month is from K90B002 [my document coding scheme] when this is from a different source than what I have in teh SOURCE information. I'm thinking of moving this kind of note to the Research Notes, as I anticipate when I publish to a wide audience, I will not include research notes. Todd.
