Subject: [GENBOX] Higher and Lower sources
Date: Thu, 11 Sep 2003 23:22:05 -0500


Hello list,
I have discovered that my idea of entering my document file number in the
name box for the source will not work for document level sources. It seems
to me that the program should be changed to allow for a higher level source
for documents. I know that there is a work around for this but it seems to
be a work around that could be avoided with some changes.

For instance, I used the document level source Deed Book so and so and cited
the page number. My personal document file number refers to the specific
page numbers of the deed book. For birth certificates, document level only,
I cited the birth certificate number so that I could use that source for
other birth certificates in the same state.
I believe that documents of this type should be included in the higher level
source option.
