Be VERY careful when you do this to choose the 2nd option!

It sounds like you really just want to edit the Master Source, which is easy to do. Then your Master Source will still be connected to the citations you've made to it.
But also, if you edit a Master Source, then click Save - you get a dialogue box asking if you want to apply the changes to all existing citations to this Master Source, or create a new Master Source. Choose that second option for a new source - of course, your old citations won't be connected to it, but it saves you a lot of retyping if you only want to change small portions of the Master Source. Also, if the Master Source happens not to be connected to any citations, you don't get the option to create a Master Source - it just automatically overwrites what you had.

I would like to be able to copy a master source to a new source so that I can give it a different name but have the same information in the body of it. For instance I have a master source name "1881 British Census". I would like a copy of it named "Eng Mdx London - 1881 British Census". I'm trying to redo my sources so that they are like the examples in the articles by Geoffrey D. Rasmussen on the Legacy site. Is this possible? If not I'll have a lot of work to do to get my sources consistant!
