Andrew:
I don't believe that the inactive parts are selected. Even the help in 6.1
is still in conflict with itself and says it both ways like you are seeing,
but we
haven't had the inactive's come up.
Also, regarding the selection - it isn't very random - it just goes in P/N
order like you are getting, but the ABCD selection is working. It stops
being in P/N order somewhat as you go along, if you add groups or parts that
you want to count in addition to the systems selection, then those will
start appearing during their normal count freq. cycle instead of in P/N
order....
