In the INI, map the RefID to the user given name. A one-time converter code could run through the events and change the Names to RefIDs?
Even if the user had to do the initial manual mapping, and you wrote the converter code, way better in the long run to convert to RefID. Plus my suggestion allows much better Naming... we could use spaces, dashes, etc since the names are no longer keys in the database.
thx

I can't change that because the group name is what is written to the database when creating events using this feature.
