Barbara, Can you duplicate each basic source in Source Writer to get the look you want when used in a report, then figure out how to edit and paste the formatted info into your basic source that will closely achieve the same style? Once done, when you save the edit, it will ask if it should be applied to all uses of the source or to create a new source. If applied to all instances of this source, then it would give you the same result as if combining, except it would still be recognized as a basic source in Legacy. This might take a little thought but would at least get the source style updated. Might this act as a work around?
Then set your preferences to use Source writer for all new sources entered and move forward with your research.

I've run into a source problem. The imported sources have the very same wording for footnote, subsequent footnote, and biblography. I tried creating a duplicate source and then moving all to the new source (combining?). Tha new source looked great, but I couldn't move to it because old is Basic and new is Source Writer. I do not want to quit using Source Writer for newly created sources because I really like the results it produces.
