Hello. I am so happy this program came out! Thank you so much! I have successfully imported with the sync program both of my Legacy databases. I have noted that all my sources were imported except any listed in the UNSPECIFIED listing of my Master Sources in Legacy. Unfortunately, I have a lot of sources listed this way. Can I get Families to import these sources as they are? If not, is there a way to change these sources in Legacy to another label such as RESEARCH or one of the other defaults? I have played at this but not been successful thus far. Thank you for any help or ideas.

You're quite correct that Unspecified sources are not supported in the current version. In fact there are several other source types such as Notes which are also missing. We'll add these for the next version.

Thank You. I would appreciate that a lot. I have several thousand source entries in my Legacy database that are unspecified and this would really help me out.
