Will do... but just out of curiosity, on your system, if you try to split an item, and it can't be split (separators aren't present, "split"option isn't checked), what happens? Does it just fail silently?

I'm able to reproduce an error that seems to be related to undoing a split operation if the split parent is first child of a root item.

I'm able to reproduce the 'error pasting data: foreign key ...'
1. Download the urd file from https://www.dropbox.com/s/bponofyugf...-data.urd?dl=0 2. Verify option / 'split text on separator is checked' 3. Verify options / text separator value is null 4. Go to info item 'Testing split errors' & drag its contents to tree root 'My Data' 5. Should get the error Thanks |

hi cnewtonne,
haven't been able to download the db, but that is the same error message I get. What is meant to happen when you do this? If I drag some text over to my Home icon, whether this text has separator text within it or not, I just get an item created under Home with that text in it. David |

If the separator text is not found when splitting, it creates a single item. Although I did find that if Separator text is empty, UR will hang when splitting an item (or importing text with Split text on separator checked). We'll fix that. |

The latest download (6.1.0.2) fixes the following issues:
1) Hang when splitting or importing item and Tools | Options | Import | Separator text is blank 2) Error undoing after splitting or importing item at root of tree 3) Updated the help to document the import options applying to Split and Join commands 4) Dropping text not honoring Split text on separator import option |

Sorry Kinook, I don't want to drag this out, and I appreciate the work you've done, but I still have a problem with this new version.
My basic case is an item containing the lines: item 1 item 2 item 3 I want to use Item > Split to turn this into three items. In Options > Import, in Separator Text I put two carriage returns. I understand now that the "Split Text on Separator" option isn't relevant for this operation so I just leave that unchecked. When I now do Item > Split, I get the same error message as before. However, if I press ctrl-Z a few times, I get to a point where there are the three items, as originally intended. So I can get to the objective, but it's an awkward way to do it and it makes me a bit wary of using the feature. |

Does that occur in a new database?

Yes. My regular routine for testing this is to make a new database to try things out. However it also happens in existing databases.

Can you provide detailed steps on reproducing the problem?
