Hi,
how to question,
we made a TS observation with a wrong pointnr. after importing our GPS data we get the following
0310 was entered, it should have been 0340
How to change this in TGO, when modifieing the observation as shown below we change the name of point 0310 to 0340,
both points are already in the database,
Is there a way to change the observation FS nr.
did it before by editing the dc and a reimport but I want to avoid this,
suggestions?

I got this from the TGO manual. I don't currently have TGO loaded.
Renaming Points
If you have points with duplicate names in a project that are not to the
same physical point, you can resolve the duplicate points by renaming
them.
For example, you may import two Survey Controller (*.dc) files
collected by different field crews. One field crew may use point names
from 1000 to 2000, while the other crew uses point names from 1000
to 1050.
When the files are imported, 51 duplicate points (1000 to 1050) are
created in the database.
To resolve the duplicate points, you can rename the points from the
second .dc file:
1. To select the points, choose Select / Points. The Select Points
dialog appears.
2. Click the drop-down arrow in the From source(s) field and
select the name of the second .dc file from the list. All points
from the second .dc file are selected.
3. Select Edit / Rename Points. The following dialog appears:
4. In the Rename dialog, use one of the available methods to
rename the points. For example:, enter 2001 in the Rename from
field to rename the points starting from 2001 (the points will be
named 2001, 2002,..., 2051).
If the duplicate points are to the same point, then you should resolve
them by merging. For information on merging duplicate points, see
Managing Points with Duplicate Names, page 127.
Note – If you enter an alphabetic name in the Replace from field, all
points in the selection will be given the same name. Enter a numeric
value for the last character of the name to increment point names.
Frank,
thanks for pointing my nose in the right direction,
actualy I had to change my import settings regarding the duplicate point settings
then after importing the magic is in the Edit|Explode points ... command
after that I renamed the points, with only the second dc selected, as you mentioned before,
Learned something new today!
