Yes, but I thought the idea was to have one Master source - eg:  A Church 
marriage from the same Church, but different details for each couple. 
Works fine for each set of couples, but not when I want to attach one to each 
of the named parents! 

Similar with one Master Source for the New Zealand Birth Register - with 
hundreds of individuals and different details for each one but cannot attach to 
their parents who are referenced on the register.

Same for a census with up to 12 members in the same family recorded on the same 
page.

Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Sharing Master Source and Source detail with other 
individuals and events

There is a check box in the lower left of the source clipboard source details 
screen that says "Prompt for Detail".

That check box tells Legacy you may want to edit the details each time you are 
applying the source. If you do not want to edit just click Save and the same 
details will be applied. No need to recreate new details.

If you are certain you will never want to change the details when sharing 
remove the check from the box and you can apply the source without being given 
the details to edit. Every save will use the same details.
