1) Yes, you can put Basic Style Sources on the Clipboard 2) Yes, you can add sources to the Master Source List without actually using them yet HOWEVER be careful that you don't do OPTIONS > PURGE UNUSED or you will lose them all AND you want to be VERY careful with FILE > FILE MAINTENANCE > LIST CLEANUP because there is a check box there that will remove unused sources.

I need help / clarification on something (although I have already read the book and watched the video's !!) In the past, I was just using the Basic System. I have 15-20 sources entered using that system and have connected them to people in my Tree. Can "Basic System" sources be used on the clipboard ? If I wanted to add a "bunch" of new sources .... Can I just add them to the Master Source list and cite them to the correct people in my Tree later ?? ..... or do I have to immediately add them to a specific person in my Tree. In other words, can I use the Source Writer to build my Master List and afterwards, go back and link these sources to the correct people and info .... and use the Clipboard to do this more quickly Thanks for your guidance JoAnne -- -- LegacyUserGroup mailing list LegacyUserGroup@legacyusers.com To manage your subscription and unsubscribe http://legacyusers.com/mailman/listinfo/legacyusergroup_legacyusers.com Archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/
