I suspect for HLT it actually came in with their big data import - but they
may 
also use a different acquisitions module to you - they use the full 
acquisitions within the library, where as at the moment on the demo site I 
think it is the simple acquisitions that is running.

However it sounds like you might have found a bug between the two systems 
- because I'd have thought you could enter in the same info in both.
