David, There is no way to search for tagged individuals from the Master Source list you can only tag/untag, clear tags for people using that source. However you can create a search list that shows individuals that have a source assigned to one of their fields.
To do this part I would first untag all of your master sources from the master source list to begin with as you will be tagging only the sources that are used by the individuals or families you are working with. Next, Open Search>Find and go to the Detailed Search Tab and under Look for whom? Individual, Where to look: Tag 3, How to look: Equal To, What to look for: Tagged. Then put a check mark for Second Condition and tick "And", Look for whom?: Individual. Where to look: Source-Master Source, How to look: Contains, What to look for: leave blank. Then tick one of the options "Clear List before this search, Add results to existing List, or Only search the Search List. The default is to Clear List before this search. Then click on "Create List". This will show all individuals with "Tag #3 AND who have a source assigned to them. The sources will be listed on the Sources Tab. Then from this list you can go to the sources that are listed and edit each master source and Tag that source. Once each of the sources in the list has been tagged, you can then go to the reports section and under the Books/Other reports click on Source Citations. On the "Include" tab tick "Only tagged sources" and then tick the option you want under What to Print I would recommend the first one and whatever else about the source citation. Then on the "Options" tab you can select what to show and what format to print it in. then do a preview to see if that is how you want it to look.

Part II I seem to be one of the many with gmail problems. I can send a message, you all can see it, but I only seem to get about 10% of the messages that are coming through this list. And if I never see a reply to my original email, I'm not sure how to send a follow up. Until I get this figured out, I need to start a new thread (which I promise to only do once). I originally posted: "I am slowly working on organizing my documentation and I would like to work on all of my Master Sources one Family Group at a time. Is there a way to either generate a report or filter the Master Source list so that it only shows the sources that are in use by a given population of individuals? I have gone in and tagged the family I want to work with, but I can't seem to get my source lists/reports to only give me the sources that are attached to "individuals with tag #3" or something similar. I can tag sources manually, and then filter that way. But that won't be very easy because my sources are such a mess and finding the right ones in the source list is very difficult (hence my re-organization project)." Ron Ferguson suggested "Have you tried Tools>Advanced Tagging, or right click on the Tag boxes on the top-right of the Detail Boxes in Family View, which will enable you to tag descendants, spouses of an individual." But tagging my individuals (descendants, spouses, etc) is not the problem. I may be new, but I can do that much. What I am trying to do is quickly tag and or filter my "sources" so that I only see the Master Sources are in use by my tagged individuals. For example, if I have 50 Master Sources in my database, I only want to see the 10 sources that are used by John Smith's family. Thanks again. And sorry for any confusion/inconvenience my double post may cause.
