Steve, I recall someone maybe the suggestion that you use a built-in Legacy tool to move the current RINs into the UserID field, so that if the RINs somehow got renumbered, your files would still work, based on the User ID. But I looked at the help file, and I cannot find the location of the tool. Maybe it doesn't do it automatically?
This was from the Archives: RE: [LegacyUG] Geoff, changing MRINs, Help please Geoff Rasmussen Sat, 04 Dec 2004 08:39:54 -0800 "I strongly support the idea of copying the RINs/MRINs to the user ID fields. Currently this is possible to do with the RINs, but not yet with the MRINs. "It is also currently possible to select to have the User ID field filled in with the next consecutive number, automatically with each newly-added individual. This is not yet possible for the MRINs." So I guess it would be helpful to know if there is an automatic way of importing the RIN into the User ID field.
