Sequence entries (the accession number) that are already present in the local PersonalGenBank-database are not imported except if the data deviates from existing data! In this case the old data is not overwritten but a new record is added to the database. The old record is marked as 'obsolete' in a special database field whereas the new record is marked as 'updated' plus a list of the deviating fields. This enables the user to quickly find updated records and to compare changes to previous data.
