This comes up a lot...and regularly. You can troll the archives for
much more discussion.

I believe your issue is the primary reason that the splitter/lumper
debate never ends. Count me as a splitter for this and other reasons.

The search and replace fix is an effective one in many cases, and I
was very happy when I learned of it some time ago...Ron I think.

If you go to the training videos, where an example is given using a
book as a Master Source and pages numbers for Detail, I think you will
realize that by definition (and design), the Detail is usually unique
to each citation that uses it and therefore Should be considered on a
one by one basis if changes are made.

For this and other recent threads (not you Kevin, you asked a
reasonable question)....I think many LUG folks are way to quick to
yell "bug" or "programmer error" whenever they see something they
don't like or didn't do right in the first place.  Legacy does a good
job, very good for the price. They aren't going to change it for every
whim someone has.
