Subject: TMG-L: Renumbering Database
Date: Wed, 4 Aug 1999 08:50:45 +1000


G'day All,

Thanks Lee, I awoke last night with a minor Eureka moment. Realised that I
had created the database to be merged from a larger (1500 person) one and
that the first 660 records were abandoned in the creation.

What I should have done was renumber the database to be merged before the
merge process - this way I would assume that there would be no gaps left
after the merge.

I double checked that there were no unused numbers in the large (17244
person) database and yes I did back up before the process (twice, just in
case). The numbering of my PDFs will be different but I will have to live
with that. TMG should renumber the PDFs at the same time. <VBG>
