[Martin Namutso <mnamutso@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Jan & Knut for the insightful replies...

Jan, i actually matched them correctly and there was nothing in the New
column when importing - the # to update was exact as was in the DB. My
under-sight was - "*You get districts when selecting regions*"...*can't
stop :-) *

A lunch break may get me back to shape!

Thanks once again.

*SOLVED - THREAD CLOSED!*
