Hi Jeremy: Thanks for the quick reply. I have another question, or maybe a bug report. I noticed that whenever I change the name of an imported dataset, while the change is temporarily effective, it does not get saved to the vsz file. When I reload the file, the dataset still has the original name it was imported with. On the other hand, name changes for datasets I create in Veusz are saved correctly. Is this a bug, or am I misunderstanding something?
