Jane, I use the research notes for that purpose, and then when I feel sure the notes are relevant I edit them and move to the "General Notes".

I would like that file to be a part of Legacy. Please do not tell me how everything is my file must be documented and attributed. I am aware of that viewpoint, but wish to use such data and information to help my research (so I can get to the documented, attributed fact). What I am asking is ideas from you all about how to keep this miscellaneous in my Legacy file, attached to whomever it pertains to. Could I use "Research Notes" for the person it relates to? It would get to be pretty long, but perhaps that is best. Could I use it as an event, perhaps in the "Notes" category. It would not, of course, print in any report (not sure how to prevent it printing, but I know it can be done). It would get to be quite long, but that is better than having the information scattered on my computer in various files. My plan is to go through and keep only the information that is pertinent and useful, but i should like it to be within Legacy, rather than in separate files in folders on my computer. Any ideas from someone who had accomplished this? Jane S.
