Help with monthly rainfall calc incorrect

I missed a few days data due to a flat battery (not connected to USB permanently) and so it reloaded some old data, leading to spurious rainfall calc of 1400mm rate and 350mm in one day.

I managed to correct it in the data for the month (23/05/13) and removed the old stuff.

Now I am trying to correct the records, I update the today, yesterday, dayfile, alltime ini, alltime txt and the may13data files.

But it keeps calculating the monthly rainfall record as being for May 2013 at 700mm plus, when the monthly data shows it is under 200mm. I checked the dayfile and it doesn't show anything like 700mm of accumulated rainfall, as I checked this according to the wiki.

What am I missing? I've just run cumulus again and it has gone to 700mm again.

You have multiple entries for several days in April and May, including one for the 23rd May which has a rain total of 354 mm.

Thanks Steve, too focused on the lines at the bottom, missed the duplicates above!
Sorry for the trouble :(
