Sources - Changing Source Type

[Ella Webb]

I am about to embark on a complete revision of my Sources - thanks by the way for the very helpful comments on Sources in this Forum.
I would like to change the Source Type on some records instead of creating new records for them if possible. Having my list of current sources that I tick off as I update them, if the Source numbers change as I add/delete, I'll never know where I am!

Maybe it's quicker to delete the lot and start again? There are only 200 records currently which I understand is nothing to some people's databases!

Thanks

Ella

The type of source can be changed by double-clicking on a source in the Sources sidebar. Afterward, select the appropriate source type from the "Source Type" menu at the bottom of the Source window.

Note: the source numbers will not change when changing the type of source

Deb,

Thanks so much. I don't know how I missed it tucked at the foot of the screen. It will save a lot of renumbering.
