Does the template file also include the 0050 condition, in the hide
list?  If it doesn't mention 0050 at all, it won't alter 0050's settings
from those used last in your other project.  You need to import the
condition settings from a file that contains 0050 to the *template*,
then Hide 0050 and save the template, before you import to the book.
