I'm thinking that if you simply removed the details and put them in the source detail to remain with the person, does the system really know that the sources that remain are identical? Since they were created as separate entities, I'm wondering if Legacy is really going to treat them as duplicates, even if they say the same thing? You might have to use the COMBINE function at the bottom of the list, but to do that you've got quite a few to go through. Maybe someone will come up with something better. --Jerry / http://www.MerriamFamilyTree.org/
