==Issues==* Missing a Help button pointing to this page {{bug|???}}* Fixed "Results" tab that does not expand as dialog is maximized.{{bug|???}}* Selecting "Execute" a second time with no changes creates a duplicate source for "New Source" , probably should give a warning. {{bug|???}} ===Future plans===
* Add attach source to multiple events using the AttachSourceTool {{bug|4257}}
* Add sources to types of objects other than people (media, events, etc) {{bug|???}}
* Be able to reverse/undo a run or provide a dry run option that shows the results of what would be changed {{bug|???}}
* Add a method to select the source ID from a popup dialog {{bug|???}}
