I don't have a lot of time to do this response, and it has been a while since I've done drag+drop from a split file - so this is from memory. It helps if you think of the drag and drop more as an import than a merge.... so it is asking if the person (people) that you are dragging should keep the same RIN/MRIN's (if available) or if it should just give them the next free new numbers. The people in the file receiving the person (people) will not have their numbers changed.
I hope that helped a bit! On Sun, Aug 16, 2009 at 12:19 AM, MJ Harper <mjohar...@comcast.net> wrote: > > > > So I've opened split screen view.
