Paul,

Are you saying that the change in the number of the RIN is an error and you
don't know whether to correct , or that correcting the citation error
changed the RIN or what?

The actual value of the RIN makes no difference to any thing other than
Pedigree web pages where the file name is the RIN . The odds are that when
you imported the GEDCOM you did not set it to not change the RINs.

Have you reported the problems as a bug?
