1.7 Alpha - Lookup/Replace - name duplicated

If you look at the screen shot for http://www.openvpms.org/forum/1.7-alpha-lookupreplace-f1-problem you will see that the top of the Replacement Confim screen shows "Replace Procedures Procedures Product Group" - ie the name of the lookup 'Procedures' is repeated.

Similarly if you try to replace a bank called 'State Savings' you get something like "Replace State Savings State Savings". [Note also here that the Lookup Type 'Bank' is missing - its seems to be present on the couple of other Lookup Type replace screens that I checked.]

I suspect that what is happening is that the second occurance is what would be the Description for some things, but Lookup Types don't appear to have Description fields.

There is actually two columns, Name and Description.

Most (all? I haven't checked) lookups simply duplicate the lookup name in the description, so you get both the name and description being identical.

If a lookup is the default, the description will also display "(Default)".

No worries - since this is in the Admin workspace we don't need to get things perfect for normal users.
