okrick 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2006 How can I delete many exhibits at one time from the exhibit log? I ran across an issue where I had over 600 external exhibits linked to a source. This source has no connection to the exhibits and I have no idea how they got attached to this particular source. Anyway, it seems that I must select them individually one at a time by mouse, click delete, and then click Yes on the are you sure screen. I can't even suppress the are you sure screen for the exhibit log in the file preferences. Is there some way I can select most of the sources and delete them at once?

John Cardinal 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2006 I don't know if there is a way to "bulk delete" exhibits. In this case, though, perhaps deleting and recreating the source would be easier? If there aren't too many places where the source is cited, it might be less work. Just an idea... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
okrick 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2006 John, That's what I thought. It would be much simpler to recreate the 33 citations than to delete 600 exhibits. Thanks, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Cardinal 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2006 Another idea. Copy the source, then use TMG Utility to change the citations from Src=n to Src=m. Then delete source n. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
okrick 0 Report post Posted August 21, 2006 Outstanding idea. Although copying using the Master Source List Copy command creates a copy with all 600 exhibits. However, I'll just add a new source identical to the old to get around that issue. Thank You Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
