Make a backup just in case but I think the following should work for you:


View -> Master Lists -> Source

Click on the source you want to get rid of

Click on the “Combine…” button at the bottom of the screen

Click on the new version that you are keeping

Click again on the “Highlight…” button at the boom of the screen

Accept the confirmation message



Check the to make sure the new source is now used in place of the old.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Merging Sources



I have recently discovered that I incorrectly used the wrong Source Template in 
Source Writer and have several citations to that incorrect source. Therefore, I 
have created a new correct source in the Master Source list. Can the referenced 
incorrect Source in the Master Source list be merged with the correct source 
and maintain all of its references? Everything that I have read in the help 
files and the Legacy 8 manual refer to duplicates or sources that are exactly 
the same. These two both use Source Writer templates, however, they are 
different in that they use different source templates.



I am using the most recent version of Legacy 8 Deluxe. Any assistance would be 
greatly appreciated.



Charles
