I don't quite understand this part of your email -- what do you mean by "i can just pull the source within my database"?
"But this brings up an interesting question - I choose to footnote my bios - and for sourcing i can just pull the source within my database with one problem. Until Legacy I had never seen an html italic done as /i instead of an i surrounded by carets. I have to change those which slows things down. Can anyone tell me where the /i comes from?" But couldn't you just copy whatever from Legacy into your word processor and do a search and replace and *then *paste into Wikitree? Unless we're talking about Legacy I suppose we should carry on this conversation outside of the LUG email group.
