Wow, that feels like a lot of animals. Do you see a pattern in this
problem? My guess is that what you plan is right, but it is Karl &/or
Niki who will know-and then please see if a change is needed in the
documentation. I think Niki is at a prenatal appointment this morning,
so we shouldn't assume she is w/baby yet but you may not get a response
right away from her).

Good morning,
This message is primarily for Karl/Niki (if Niki is still sans baby).
I have a list of 25 immigrant males who have a matgrp of 9, but who,
instead of being in group 9 from birth until their entry date, are
actually shown to be in their 'entry group' at birth. I have, for all
of these males, the list of actual dates when they should enter our
population.
What I am not sure of is, if I simply change the date prior to their
entry date to group 9... will it interpolate back to 9 for the rest of
their young lives.... do I have to make incremental changes, do I just
change their group at birth date and group at the day before entry?
I have tried reading through the documentation but it isn't obvious
to me what the best method is to get babase to understand that these
males are really in grp 9 until their entry dates.
Any input?
Thanks
Lacey
