Did we decide that there is no way to get a list of everyone who has X as a source? What about if there is IS only one source? I wanted to save myself rekeying the same line abt 300 times, so I created a source. Now, I've finished inputting the names, and want to go back and copy'n'paste the source line into the notes. Be a tad easier if I could do it from a "Uses Source" list? Thanks. Cheryl
Cheryl, Under "Reports" there is a tab for "lists." One of those lists all the people that have one source. The report describes the Source ant then lists all those people that use that source. Is that what you want? Also under "focus filter," you can find people by choosing various aspects of a source. With this option you can edit from the "find" list with only those you found.

You can then choose to print it out or not. :-) Jeannie
