If I understand this correctly. This is something you do after you have imported your data (post-import) - and ideally, I should try and change my citation details before importing - to only two fields CD1 and CD2. My census sources - have five or six, but two would help. At least then, i could keep the head of household name as one field and the rest of the census data in the other. Every bit helps. I will give it a try with my test data, I have already transferred.
