hi again

you dont have to lose your work victor, the .gmfmap is an xml file, so 
what you can do is to keep a copy of your old file, recreate it then 
open both the new and the old file and copy and paste what ever you need 
but you have to be careful with where you place the text or else the 
file will be corrupted and you might not be able to open it in the editor.

hope this will help
