And a Maxim Dl stacking /calibration question

I took some LRGB Ha frames last night and some of them were not labelled correctly by me - i.e some of the lights were labelled darks by mistake. I know which frames they are but I have tried to use the auto and manual schemes in Maxim to calibrate with poor results.
I am confused about which way round to do this as this is only the second go at LRGB for me.
Do I stack all the darks then all the flats or do I combine the colour calibration frames i.e dark red flat red etc
Where do I insert my lights? Do I stack these first or calibrate each frame then stack the calibrated ones.
Please give me some basic advice as overreliance on DSS has left me confounded!
Cheers
Graham
