Gene,
Do you use Source Writer or the Basic Source tool? If you use Source Writer, the complexity of the various types of data (vital records, newspapers, census, military, etc), along with the multiple options available in that tool, would extremely difficult for the Legacy software to analyze and write an accurate and complete source and citation. Probably a complex artificial intelligence component would be needed. If you use the Basic Source tool, you can cut and paste a source and citation created by an individual online service. FamilySearch already has such pre-written source – citations for each document found, although most source – citations are longer than Legacy will allow in the Source Detail text box. None of the other services (MyHeritage, FindMyPast, or GenealogyBank) offer pre-written source - citations for their found data. Not much help I’m afraid. However, you might consider using the Basic Source tool for any data you obtain from FarmilySearch. You could than use their pre-written source – citations.

Carrie, Yes, I'm well aware of that. I just thought it would be nice if, along with the hint content, Legacy might provide the appropriate citation. Probably asking for too much. Gene
