Big mistake__will this fix work?

I was adding some traffic via the ME to RSRD(well traveller mod which uses RSRD traffic)...I was building via the empty layer "44AJapConvoy" and accidentially saved it under 44A Jap CONVOY layer, which replaced that all important convoy layer. Would it work to simply copy and paste a fresh 44AJapConvoy layer into the mod? I really dont want to reinstall as I did a lot of work and apparently saved over this layer without realizing it.I knew something was up when a convoy did not show up after an Ultra and it was in a spot you just cant miss it, so did some investigating.

you can open the files with windows notepad utility in order to edit and save them manually.

or the better solution is you start with a new file and compare it to your messed up file using winmerge utility to view each side by side and just click on what you want copied to the other file.

it will save you a lot of work by not having to redo everything just copy it over line by line or in complete sections and you can verify things are set up correctly at the same time, any typos might cause CTD
