I'd also like to see your Access structure.

I'll put my two cents worth in on this!
I have a separate database I constructed using MS ACCESS wherein I keep
literally thousands of scraps of information gleaned from on-line
sources, material cfound from trips to libraries, etc. This database was
started LONG before I ever heard of Legacy, let alone using it, and
before software programs and computers were as powerful as they are today and
storage was a BIG consideration. The *key* tying Legacy individuals and source
information from my Access database is based on the RIN#.
The concept is great. The problem is I've got all this external data in
another database and have no way of getting it into Notes, Sources or
some other applicable area within Legacy's database. Having collected,
and keyed, this information over years of searching I'm not about to
re-key all of it into Legacy. My solution to my problem....LIVE WITH IT!

I'd like to see your Access structure. The thing about these note-
taking/source organiser programs is that they are a place to put unverified
information about people who may or may not be related. Once you've verified
the information, you can surely copy/paste it into Legacy Notes etc.
