I'm still using the discontinued UFT while shopping for the best 
replacement, so some questions about Legacy sources:

1) Is it possible to search for sources by some criteria, and then generate 
a shortened list of sources to choose from?

2) UFT has two source abbreviations. A list of sources can be sorted by 
either abbreviation or by source number.  I really love this about UFT.  For 
example books can be sorted by either author or title, census records can be 
sorted by either location or year.  All this assumes that the user entered 
things consistently in the abbreviations, of course.  Are any such alternate 
sortings available for source lists in Legacy?

3) UFT has source fields for transcripts, surnames, and locations.  I've 
used these extensively.  This allows me to search for sources that mention 
specific people or places or for certain words in the transcript.  Any hope 
of transferring this information to Legacy and and using it in a similar 
fashion?

4) Some sources, like letters or phone calls from living people contain 
information like addresses, phone numbers, etc. that these living "sources" 
don't want made public.  Is there any way in Legacy to block this 
information from printing or exporting while still retaining it in the 
database?
