I've now finished editing my movie, which is made up of lots of clips. However, there were 3 sound sources, and they are at different volumes from one another. Is there a global method of getting them all to the same volume, or do they have to be adjusted seperately ( and how). Power director 18.

Yes. Use Ctrl+A to select all timeline clips then right-click and choose Normailze Audio.

I tried Ctrl +a, and it highlighted all the clips in the library. However, when I right clicked, nothing happened.

Since you selected my answer as solving the problem, I assume you then tried my suggestion with the timeline clips instead of the media library

I'm sorry- I was a little premature in my praise. I still have no solution. When I press Ctrl+a, I expected the whole timeline to highlight blue (assuming the a means all), and then right clicking on would allow me to normalise the audio. That does'nt happen. Instead, all the files in the library highlight, and no amount of right clicking does anything. I've also assumes that ctrl+a means control, then a.
Looking in help, it mentions the equaliser, but that's greyed out.
Cheers, Norman

Thanks for posting that you hadn't yet gotten it to work.

Before PD knows you want to work with timeline objects, you have to click on something there first, as shown in this annotated screenshot:
