@ValentineHerr, here are instructions for mapping GROA covariates to ForC:

if covar_[#]=min_dbh, enter coV1value in min.dbh if covar[#]=max_depth, enter coV1value in min.dbh if covar[#]=any over variable (excluding "component"/"components"), enter in our covariate 1/2 fields.

Does that mean we completely ignore "component" and "components" and never report it anywhere else ?

@CookPatton, you might want to remove the "s" in the one record that has covar_#=="components" instead of "component".

Never mind, I had not gotten to the variable name conversion yet. sorry
