This is just my day.

In this batch, the grantee and grantor first name has been transposed (switched) on every record. All the other fields are correct. Since the column headings at the top of the page are clear and easily determined, I'm guessing there might be some malicious mischief underway with this batch. I'm working through the batch and will probably complete it in about an hour or so, but just wanted you to know that it appears this one was deliberately manipulated.

The batch has been completed and submitted.

    It probably wasn't malicious since all the other fields were correct. Sometimes indexers just don't look at the field titles. I've started a batch and then realized the surname was before the given name after two or three names.
