Hi Dave,

Thanks for your input. The big problem I'm having at this point is that I can't find any of these fields. For example, I've decided to put the GlobalUniqueID for a linked specimen into the other_specimen_id field (as listed in the help). I checked my inventory.specimens file, and I have the ids right where I want them. But after I import, I can't find the data or the field anywhere. The table on the help page (https://www.labkey.org/wiki/home/Documentation/page.view?name=specimenArchiveFileFormat) says that other_specimen_id is an attribute of "Event". So I looked for it by clicking on the history of the specimen, but there's nothing there. I tried customize view on the history screen to see if that field was not included in my default view, but didn't find it there either. I went to the schema browser and looked at the field lists for all of the specimen tables, but still didn't find it. Could you point me in the right direction so that I can get to this field and use it in a query or custom view?

Thanks so much,
Jen
