Is there any way to either flag, or tag, sources? I want to go back through all my sources and revise/check that I've extracted all the available information from them. It would be good to be able to mark them all in some way, then unmark them as I work my way through them. Similar feature to marking people would be ideal. The only option I can see is to put some text into the free form text field which I can then remove when I've checked the source, but that seems very tedious as it would need to be done one by one.

What I do is sort the sources by number then make a note to the last one I changed.

Good point, simple effective solution.
Many thanks.Comment

For this situation, both in Reunion and other databases, after nailing down the affected records, I paste one unique piece of text in each affected record. Normally, this can be done in a single action. Then.... when I have time to work on the records, I do a find for that unique text AND, as I finish fixing each record, I delete the text from that record. In this way, I don't have to make a list or check off things. I just do a find and go to work. When I do a find and come up empty, bingo, I have completed the project. (Note: Usually, I do a single gobbledygook word that is very very unlikely to be in any record [Example: a#3v=56xyz]. In Reunion, I paste into the Notes field.)Bob White, Mac Nut Since 1985, Reunion Nut Since 1991

I asked for this feature a few years ago, so perhaps adding this to the wish list would be effective. For now, I have made a checklist in google sheets that corresponds with the source ID#. That works for me.Comment
