Pathfinder Character Sheet & BAB

So I noticed this when I was building a character using the pathfinder template that it seems to be add in the base attack bonus twice. Once from the class tabwhere you put your base attack bonus in and then another from the melee automated formula because it takes thr number you just put in. Now your probably thinking ok what's wrong with that? Well when I add an attack to the character it adds both the BAB from the class tab AND the melee formula because you are proficient in the weapon using the attack. Am I doing something wrong or is this supposed yo happen.
Attack Bonus is not where you put in BAB when creating weapon entries, in fact there is no need to input BAB at all in weapon entries. This would be any bonuses on top of BAB, because as you said BAB is already figured in with the Melee/Ranged auto-calculation. BAB for each class line is auto-calculated to the total BAB (@{BAB}), then the total BAB is calculated into the Melee/Ranged/CMB section.
I do not put any entry into attack bonus. When i put the weapon to not proficient it only counts the base attack bonus entered on the class page. So right now i have a monk trying to set his attack to the correct number. His BAB is 1 and his strength is +3 so therefore his melee should be +4. Well when i put the weapon in with the modifiers set to 0 his attack is +5. I put the weapon to not proficient to not count his melee stats and it shows a +1 and when i enter his BAB as a 0 on the class page his attack goes does to a flat 0. I am just a little confused as to why its counting it twice when i have all of the modifiers for both damage and to hit set to 0

Christopher , please send me a join link and I will come take a look.
Found out the issue. I was not aware that masterwork in pathfinder gave a +1 enhancement bonus to attack. Thanks Gauss!
I'm extremely unhappy with the new pathfinder sheet. I lost a lot of info with the switch and liked how the older style looked a lot like my mythweavers sheets. Is there anyway to get access to the older style sheet? I'd prefer not to use the new sheet.
