SYMPTOMS
========
When you import a table in Microsoft Project, selecting or clearing
the Merge check box in the Import dialog box will reset the selected item
in the Table list to its default selection. Similarly, if you import a
table from a Microsoft Excel workbook, and you change the Merge check box,
the Sheet list is reset to its default selection.

More Information
================
If a task table is active when you import a task table, then that table is
the default selection in the Import dialog Table list; otherwise, the first
task table in the Table list is the default. Similarly, when you import a
resource table. The Sheet list in the Import dialog box is enabled only
when you import from a Microsoft Excel workbook. The default selection is
the first sheet in the workbook.
The Import dialog box comes up whenever you try to open any of the
following file types: Text, .CSV, Microsoft Excel Worksheets, FoxPro
Tables, Lotus WKS/WK1/WK3, and dBASE III/IV. The Merge check box in the
Import dialog box is used to merge the imported data into the active
project as opposed to putting it in a new project.
