Source text may not transfer as desired in a GEDCOM. My preference is for obits at the end of individual (general) notes and a source like a family plot transcription at the end of marriage notes. That works except for one very well known program that OMITS marriage notes from "book" reports.

Non-Legacy wall charts viewed on screen can have multiples of events and multiples of sources. They can be used as a "visual" custom report for the most important individuals in a family -- two or three generations with spouses or the direct line (siblings optional.)

One of the most interesting projects of 2004 was using a wall chart to display the age of each individual found in each census 1871-1901. Sometimes the date of birth in the 1901 census is a year or more different from the birth registration or another source.

Limited to birth and death events, Legacy 4 and 5 relationship charts still have a "lost" generation a year after the problem was discussed in the mailing list. Demonstrated on Geoff's laptop when he was at a local conference in Oct 2004. -- Elizabeth

To me a Wall Chart almost by definition doesn't have Sources. It's a graphical representation of relationships. Details are found in other Reports with sources for those interested.
