Match Group Set dialog
This dialog is used to match data when you import a group set from a file in the Taxonomic Database module.
Match set names
When you open the dialog, you will not see any data (image above). The name of the workspace set is displayed in the yellow field at the top. You can match this set to an existing set (even if it has a different name) by selecting it from the drop-down menu, or you can Add a new set with the name of the incoming set.
Match groups
Status colours in the table indicate new, existing or conflicting data. The workspace group and the database group will conflict if EITHER they each have a different number of taxa OR they have the same number of taxa but the taxa are not the same. These conflicts must be resolved before saving the set.
In this example, the 'Agglutinating forams' group conflicts (shown in red) with the group of that name in the database, because the database version has 8 taxa while the workspace version has only 6. The 'Calcareous benthic forams' group is green because the group does not exist at all in the database (although some or all of its taxa may exist).
Double-click each group in turn (or select it and press Match group) to open the Match Group dialog
to resolve conflicts. You could also Exclude groups from the workspace that you do not want to be part of the set when it is saved to the database. If you are importing a set that was already in your database, then when you press OK to save the set, any excluded groups will be removed from the database set.
