Importing gpx routes

[Prairie 36]

I deleted all routes I had in OpenCPN in the Route & Mark Manager. I have a gpx Route File folder under documents on my computer. When importing these gpx routes back into the Route & Mark Manager from my computer's Route folder by highlighting all the routes; multiple routes with the same name show up. How can I correct this. Importing a route at a time is a little tedious. As always, thank you for your help and pointing me in the right direction.

Can you post your .gpx routes? Need a bit more information to see if I have a suggestion.

Thank you for the quick response. I think I found the problem. I had previously exported all visible routes and had that file in my GPX Route folder. So, I think what happened I imported single listed routes by highlighting all the files in my GPX Route folder and I didn't notice the gpx file which had a group of routes contained in it. Once I removed the gpx file with a group of files the import gpx worked the way that i had anticipated. Again, thank you all for such a good product.
