It depends on the nature of the document and the way you have set up your Master Source. I have one Master Source for all Birth Certificates from a particular county Register Office. Each Birth Certificate scan is attached to the Source Detail. There was a biographical pamphlet published about my Great Grandfather. This has it's own Master Soure and the scan of the pamphlet is attached to the Master Source. (Source Detail might refer to a particular fact on a particular page, in which case the relevant text is copied into the Source Detail Text field.) -- Jenny M Benson 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).
