Hi Karl,
I have a vague recollection that we talked about this before, but I
can't remember the details... Sorry if we've been over this before. We
have found some errors in the cycles table that need correcting -
specifically, one cycle has the wrong sname attributed to it. So we
need to delete a cycle for one individual and add a cycle for another,
which will obviously affect the Seq column for both females. If we
delete the current row and then run upcyc to add the new row, will that
sort out the Seq column just for the female who's in the new row, or
does it redo all snames when upcyc is run? In other words, we need some
equivalent of reinterp for cycles - does it do this for everybody when
upcyc is run? If not, how do we change the Seq column of the femlae
whose row we deleted, besides doing it manually (which we can do if
that's best)?
Thanks for any thoughts on this.
Daphne and Catherine
