Sorry, must have not saved the correct version of the .gno before uploading it. It has now been corrected to add Source Media Type of Census.

Not entirely sure what exactly you mean by 'flag a large number'.  I don't know of a way to add a source to a number of contacts or to add Media Type Census to a number of sources.

A search and replace on the xml could work provided you can identify the records to be changed.

Thank you Genome. Please excuse my fumblings.

I did not appreciate the difference between Sources tab and Sources/Citation Properties. They looked the same to me.
I also had difficulty finding the Properties, which is probably why I had updated the Sources tab in error.

I have now updated the Properties for all members of the family/household and CENS records are being created as expected/desired.

No need to excuse yourself.  It must be quite confusing if you have not followed the full history of GenoPro.  In the beginning only a single source could be recorded for occupation, birth, contact etc.  Then it was pointed out that genealogy data could originate from multiple sources so the Sources tab was added. leaving the original Source field as well.  The two are stored separately.  I chose the single Source field to flag a Census event as it was easier than searching through a list of Sources.

By the way you can now also generate CENS Gedcom entries via a fudged technique I outlined in post Events Galore and More!   Just add an 'occupation' with job title |CENS| , put in the Census residence as Work Place, add the Source or Sources if required (no need for Source Media Type to be Census with this approach). Set both start and end date to date of Census.

The Narrative Report and Export to Gedcom (via Report Generator) will treat this as a Census event rather than an occupation entry.
