Jenny Just wanted to comment quickly about your last two replies. I totally agree with both. Have been filing as you indicated since the early 1980s (not with binders however; folders). I too have used Individual Events and have lots of duplicates. Only within the last couple years have I

Thank you all for input. Some kept more on the mark than others (my intended mark anyway) but all very interesting perspectives all the same. I was indeed soliciting perspectives on directly linking a source to a photograph in, say, the Picture Center, thus assigning a source citation to a

Good summary Mike. Death is an event (having its own data area), a funeral is an event, an award ceremony is an event, blue eyes are a fact, a missing finger is a fact, all of these can be substantiated by a source (certificate, newspaper article, medical statement, personal knowledge, etc).

Thanks for your input Stan. Your suggestion works well on a limited individual search basis where the File ID (P) is assigned to a source document. However besides master sources and source citation detail, File IDs can (should) also be used with to-do items and multimedia entries. These
