Forgive me if this has already been covered in this or another forum.
I found an insect close to the boundary between VC 8 (South Wilts.) an VC9 (Dorset). The six-figure grid reference is interpreted by iRecord as being in VC 9 / 8 whereas I know that it came from VC 8. The record was uploaded from a spreadsheet using the field Vice County (supplied) set to 8 - this field is ignored. I tried editing the record and setting the field Vice County to 8 but this edit was also ignored.
It seems to me that iRecord always generates the Vice County from the supplied Map ref. and ignores the editable fields Vice County and Vice County (supplied). If this is indeed the case, why are these fields editable, or even present? Would it not be better to use a supplied VC as a way of validating a supplied Map ref., rather than always taking the latter as being correct?
