I think the problem is the words "every field on the Information form" - what you can 'see' on that form are the primary, or vital, event fields of name, birth date and location, baptism date and location, death date and location and burial date and location (unless one has customised this view). The additional events don't actually show the fields which can include description, date, location and notes - in fact in the case of multiple events you can't even see all of the events without scrolling. They aren't "on the Information form" as such. Other hidden fields are in the notes areas of the vital events - does the use of the three bar icon also add the source to the notes? I have read the Help files to learn the difference between the single bar and three bars - just misunderstood the implications.

It would be awesome if people took time to read them! <rbg> This is how the Source Clipboard has worked since it was first created.
