When I enter info into the Source Detail, I enter it such as:

Name: Elizabeth Cate
Birth Date: 6 Apr 1765
 Birth Place: Barrington, Strafford, New Hampshire, United States
Father's name: John Cate
FHL Film Number: 1000492

Then I save it.

When I come back later to view it, the info has been reformatted to:

Name: Elizabeth Cate Birth Date: 6 Apr 1765 Birth Place: Barrington,
Strafford, New Hampshire, United States Father's name: John Cate FHL
Film Number: 1000492

The data has been run together, making it more difficult to read when
printed out.

If I then modify the entry by placing an ENTER in the appropriate places
to recover the desired format, thereafter it seems to stay formatted as
desired.

How can I overcome this so I don't have to deal with it twice?  Thanks!

Are you using Basic Sourcing or Sourcewriter. Are you typing each line with a Return, or copying and pasting it from elsewhere?

I mainly use SW and make entries like that in Source Text and it only appears run together on the Output tab of the Assigned Sources Screen. When I tried a few lines (with Returns) in the Source Detail field of a Basic Source it appeared correctly, In both instances it appeared correctly in a Report.

So, I cannot replicate your result, but are you doing something different to what I have tried? Please give us some more details.
