What I understood from Cheryl's last post is that she is doing what most of us do in the way that many of us do it: Add a new child - name, dates, places. Select Cite a Master Source and select one from the list. Enter the relevant Source Details. Click Save and click Close. So far so good. But apparently if Cheryl closes Legacy, when she opens it again, although the new child is there with its dates and places, the Source is not. Trouble is, that works for the rest of us. I don't know why it wouldn't for Cheryl. -- 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).
