   Technically speaking, yes, they should but in this particular context, they're   
   not. I conclude that I'm trying to do something for which WinPoint isn't   
   designed to do.   
      
   This raises another issue which I hadn't thought of until now. I don't have a   
   "DUPES" area but I would have expected WinPoint to have automatically created   
   one. ISTM that WinPoint's dupe checking is broken.   
      
   Regards,
