I have downloaded the Rootsmagic ap to my iphone5. I am having a problem with free-form sources, which is the only kind of source that I use. When I  tap "sources" for a birth, marriage or death, I cannot pull up the research notes portion. This is where I type in all the details including word-for-word obituaries.   Is there any way to view these research notes that are attached to the source citations, in the iphone ap?   Thanx   Nancy From: "rootsmagic-users-request@rootsweb.com" <rootsmagic-users-request@rootsweb.com> >To: rootsmagic-users@rootsweb.com >Sent: Wednesday, January 2, 2013 3:00 AM >Subject: ROOTSMAGIC-USERS Digest, Vol 8, Issue 1 > > > >SEND REQUESTS FOR CHANGES TO YOUR MAILINGS TO: >RootsMagic-Users-Admin@RootsWeb.com > >NOT TO THE MAIL LIST. > >------------------------------- >To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to >ROOTSMAGIC-USERS-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without >the quotes in the subject and the body of the message > >Today's Topics: > >  1.
