Sherry, Reusing abomdoned RINs is a definite NO No, for me, as I nest the Legacy Web page pedigree tables into another table. Because of incorrect Legacy html coding I have to amend each page individual in 3 places. The last time I did this (end of June) it took me 85 hours!
The point I was making was that I was deleting everything after the the last RIN I needed (ie not in the middle) but Legacy was assuming the deleted RINs were still there - it did not do this previously.
