Thank you, Lisa (and all others who've responded). Given that the Research Notes report is the primary reason I switched to RM, and combined with the issues with GEDCOM, I will probably need to cease using Shared Facts. I don't use family facts for things like census because I don't like where they appear in reports. A Fact/Event clipboard (as found on the program from which I switched) would make a nice addition to RootsMagic!

Connie, I, too, wished there was some sort of "clipboard" in RM. I really miss that in Legacy. I copy the source but must make a new event for each person I want to attach that source. It is alot of work. But I also switched to RM for the Research Notes report.
