I have Parish Register's as a source, and as I have added information I have listed where in source the citation came from e.g B T's Brighton. Problem is I have over 1500 citations to the Parish Register Source, and I feel that to make things a bit more managable I should have broken it down a bit in the firat place, and had Sussex PRs, Berks PRs etc etc. Can I now do this easily or is it going to be weeks and weeks sat at the PC! Any other suggestions to make things a bit more managable would be appreciated.

Ok, it will help a little I think.
In the Query Store is a query which returns all people born.married.buried in a location. If you use this to isolate people you want to change the source on.

Then for each event you want to change there are two ways to go. Turn on auto source citation and paste in the new source and the delete the old or use the replace link to swap out the old source for the new one.
