Hmmm Jerry, if I understand your request correctly, I believe you could; 1-create an 'UNSPECIFIED' source if one has not been created yet. 2-Then using the <View>-<Master Lists>-<Source> to view your sources, [...<Source> -NOT- <Source Type>...] 3-you can select and highlight the 'NAME' source in question, 4-then clicking the <Combine Highlighted Source with Another in List> button at the bottom, 5-select the 'NAME' source to highlight it, 5-then click on the <Highlight Destination Source, Then Click This Button> to combine and rename your 'Name' source to the 'Unspecified' source for all attached entries using the 'Name' source.
