This is why I am trying to correct my location master list. I want it to do the things it will do if it is correct. I do not understand the location name parts statements. If I am trying to get everything in my list to fit with what Legacy recommends, is there one of these I should check? Do you have a suggestion for doing a global correction, or would you say I must do it item by item?
