Brian, you had said Alt spacebar in your prior email, which is why I tried that. I tried Alt Tab, and the only Legacy window that comes up is the "Add a New Master Source" dialog box which I am in at this point, with the run-time error 9 box which comes up as soon as I try to save the screen. I can see the "Edit Event for ..." behind it and there is another Legacy window behind that that I can't see (I assume it is the "Individual's Information" dialog box); Alt Tab accesses my desktop and my webmail as the only other windows. Indeed, I am not sure why there would be any other window opened at this point since I have closed out of the Address dialog box for adding a source, and am back at the previous screen. It seems to me that I should not be getting this run-time error message whenever I try and save the "Add a New Master Source" screen. Why am I getting that and isn't it a likely contributor to the problem I am having?
