Mel, that is what I am saying - in that case it does not double but I cannot use it because importing into new empty log file does not bring the Groups along. All the Groups are missing and I don't know how to get them to come along from the old file. They are the same kind of "hidden" info like Notes for This Call. You have both or you have neither it seems...
