Ah, yes, you are correct.

Thanks Rob.  So, following from this:

1. The 'Import Areas' tool in scfg doesn't auto-populate this Tag when importing from a FILEGATE format file.  What's the easiest way to set them to be the (current) internal code as part of this process?

2. Suggestion: Can tickit be adjusted so that AutoAreas also works if the 'FidoNet Area Tag' field matches?
