The process is the same in 1.02 and 1.03. Version 1.00 didn't have an automated process, though. Is that what you are thinking of? The difference is visible on the Vot/Dem page. The later versions have a portal to enable you to see multiple voter records in names records with two names. The problem this year is that the UEF is new. The 2002 version has some fields named differently and a few additional fields. >In any case, does anyone have any specific advice to a group using 1.02 on >Win 98 receiving back a enhanced data file from a vendor?

There should be an automated process in 1.02. You should get inside impenh_.102, change and add field definitions to match the new UEF field inventory if that's what you're getting. Then it should work. In any case, the automated process doesn't include an embedded import list. You are given the import field mapping dialog to sort out any mismatches. It's just way easier ot get the field changed done ahead of time. > >Their ebase database has had significant modification so an official upgrade >to 1.03 is not really feasible.
