Sarah Cummings said: I would like to be able to click on a person in a record i.e. a census record and be able to look at their record without having to attach, There is no ID number or other way to just look at the persons life sketch before adding it. You don't always know if its a match without being able to look at the person's record first.

In Source Linker, if it brings up the "Find a Match in Family Tree" list, you can click on a name to bring up the person card for that name; if that quick summary isn't enough, you can right-click on "Person" (or "Sources" or whatever) and choose "Open in new tab" to take a closer look.0 -
Sarah Cummings said: Thank you-this helps some. Sometimes if I am in a census I see someone I want to click on and cannot. I don't necessarily know if I want to add them to my tree unless I can see more information on them-I ended up going all the way out and doing a new search. It would save time (and frustration) if you could click on the person and see what their ID # is -although I do know that not everyone necessarily has been placed in a tree (and therefore given a ID) yet.0
