Creating the Source and Citation

Now we are going to create the Source and Citation for Matilda's Baptism. On the next line type # accept the selection
On the next line type {f6}{Ctrl+home}{enter}
Your autotype template should now look like this:

Why did I put this line <[Source.Title]|[Source.Collection]> like this? Sometimes Family Search have called the source name Source.Title, and other times as Source.Collection. By putting both fields in the < > pair and an | or between the fields, ORA will use the one that has data in it, and ignore the other. So, we are catching the source name, irrespective of the ORA Settings field name.
The {f6} moves the cursor into the source list, {Ctrl+Home} highlights the top/first/only source found, and the {enter} selects it.

The default Generic Source and Citation pane looks like this, and this is what I will follow fpr the ORA Settings Autotype template
Your Source pane may be different, so you will have to adapt to match
