Michele, Pls disregard the suggestion I just sent. However, you might consider get the "desired" template # and changing it in Access on just ONE of the "wrong" sources (or citations? I'm sure the database gurus will chime in here) and see what happens to the data you've entered. I mean, in many cases it looks like all the same fields even though it's a "different" template. If this test on ONE works - gives you the desired results in printing citations - then "woo hoo!" --Paula in Texas Researching: Adair Baker Beasley Benson Betz Bigley Blagrave Burton Chapman Clement Clough Coppernoll Costine Daulton Dinwiddie Doody Ellis Exline Field Floran Floyd Gates Goodale Gordon Gump Hale Harbaugh Hind Hopkins Hughes Hurdle Jones Klein Koyle Laswell McDonald Misner Passwaters Pelton Roberts Roche Ryburn Sanford Short Singer Sullivan Weller Williams

Death certificates… For death certificates I chose “created at the county level” since they were created at the county level BUT death certificates are STATE forms. I should have chosen created at the state level. Now all of my death certificates and their citations (I dare say I have about 200 death certificates and multiple citations for each one of those) is wrong according to ESM’s book Evidence Explained. The problem is, there is no way for me to convert these easily. Surely Legacy can design some sort of conversion tool so that these sources could be changed. I am sure I am not the only person that has accidentally chosen a wrong template. I am still toying around with going back to the Basic format because of this. Either way, it will take me close to forever to get all of my citations right. And to think, I was so proud on the day that I converted my last Basic to SW! michele Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
