I don't believe you can. Would be wonderful for me too, as I make errors like that on occasion too. When I do, I copy the detail information to a document (Word, Notebook, whatever). I then create the master, and paste the info back into the Details.
If anyone else has a better suggestion, I'm all ears. Thank you, Trevor Carlson Edmonton, AB. -----Original Message----- From: LegacyUserGroup [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: September 26, 2016 1:25 PM To: Legacy User Group Subject: [LegacyUG] Changing Master Sources I couldn't find that this question was asked before so: Every now and then when entering a new source, I forget to change the Master Source and only change the detail. For example, I may have: 1)Master Source = Death Certificate, detail = John Smith, New York 1929, #25649 then I change to a census and accidentally forget to change the Master Source so I have: 2)Master Source = Death Certificate, detail = 1940 NY, Ulster, ED 76, sheet 2B, line 68 Now I want to change the Master Source on the second one to "Federal Census", not "Death Certificate" and leave the detail as is. How can I do that? I can't use Edit as it Edits the Master Source, it does not change it. It seems I can change a detail but I cannot change the Master Source without entering complete new sources for the ones in error. Help please.

If it is a tip that the staff or a beta tester posted it will also have a hashtag making it even easier to find things. #LegacyFamilyTreeTips. The posts are in a rolling format. If someone responds it pops back up to the top. They aren't entered by category.

Is the Facebook page searchable? Are the questions/posts organized by subject or category? Although I have a Facebook account, I don't have a high regard for it and refrain from using it as much as possible.
