New page

Something has been bothering me and I'm hoping that someone can help me. Reading through the 2DA page, under the part dealing with the formating of the Excel spreadsheets. This line, specifically the part I put in bold, ''Column A starting at line 3 will contain an integer row ID number that is '''unique to that row across all files''' (unless creating an M2DA override).'', seems to be implying that there can only be one item, throughout all of the 2DA's, that has a row ID of, for example, 1. This is obviously not the case so, if possible, can someone explain exactly what that means?

	:It means across all files that are part of the same M2DA. So for example, you could have rows 1-100 in CLA_Base and rows 2000-2010 in CLA_My_Awesome_Extra_Classes, and they'll all be added into the CLA_ M2DA. But if you have rows 1-100 in CLA_Base and rows 1-10 in CLA_My_Awesome_Extra_Classes, the first ten rows of CLA_Base get overridden.

		+	Ah. That makes a lot more sense. Thanks for the clarification.
		+	One more question then. Looking through 2DA_base and M2DA_base I see that, using the CLA_ prefix as per your example, the various .xls' using that are listed in 2DA_base, while just the prefix itself is listed in M2DA_base. Does this mean that a new spreadsheet using the CLA_ prefix needs to be added to 2DA_base so that the converter can find it? Or does it automatically run through all the files in Source\2DA\, and all subdirectories, looking for files using that prefix? Thanks.
