I just tried adding a citation that I had not used in some time. I went
to the tag where the citation was used, opened the citation box and
clicked OK.

I went to the tag where I wasted to add the citation and clicked on the
+ sign to the left of the empty citation window, The citation number
box appears in blue. You can insert a source number or press F3 of ^F3
and select the citation you want to use. Click on OK and the citation
is save to the new tag.

You don't click on the citation window but on the + sign. Paul is
wrong.

Sometimes when you use F3 the first citation in the repeat list is not
used and you have to go through all 15 to get to it. ^F3 is often
faster.
