A similar thing happened a few years ago. Does this citation exist anywhere correctly. If no, try this. To confuse the computer, I created a source that matched the wrong one, then combined the two, then deleted the one. It took a few tries to match enough that it would combine them. More recent versions of Legacy may not be as picky as at the time I did it. It seemed at the time, the program could only delete a full citation and not a partial. This was done in Basic, not Source Writer. You didn't mention what type. Rich in LA CA
