Eureka! It's late, I'm tired and grouchy and I can't figure out a way to do this!

I can't seem to get it to work using long id, the following statement
gives an error:
if the long owner of group myIndex of theOwnerLongName =
theOwnerLongName then
I can't figure out how to change it for long id's. However, I've
pasted it back and it works wonderfully, so I'm a happy bunny!
All the Best and Have a Great Weekend
