Combine Source Citation Text and Reference Notes?

Recommended Posts

My family tree was begun in an older version of FTM and then imported some years ago in FTM 2009. The 2009 version has much more advanced source options, but many of the sources were imported with only citation text and reference notes -- not source titles. I've literally got thousands of sources, and they show in the program alright. But when I have my GEDCOM imported to TNG, many of the sources show up duplicated (because both the reference notes and citation texts are showing) as seen here:

When I want to edit them, they are not available as a source, but only a citation editable at the side of each individual event:

When I click on the citation button there with the green dot, it shows part of the full citation:

But then, when I click the green edit button, this is all that shows and I cannot edit the duplicated lines:

Is there a way to be able to fix these problems so that the majority of my sources do not appear duplicated in the list at the bottom of each individual page?

Thanks so much!
