Instead of writing out 4 bars of chords twice I am using the Repeats/codas/ . . .feature under Edit to get this section to repeat once making 8 bars. What I'm finding however is that the section contained within the double lines repeats but the last chord of the repeated section runs through the remaing 4 bars without following the chord structure. So instead of playing Cm / / / F7 / / / Bbmaj7 / / / Bbmaj7 / / / Cm / / / F7 / / / Bbmaj7 / / / Bbmaj7 / / / it is playing Cm / / / F7 / / / Bbmaj7 / / / Bbmaj7 / / / Bbmaj7 / / / Bbmaj7 / / / Bbmaj7 / / / Bbmaj7 / / / Is there some aspect of the settings that has not been properly adjusted?

Yes. It's well explained in the help screen accessed through the Repeats dialogue.
At the moment, your second four bars are dead empty, and the arrangement is playing that same last chord over and over because it has nothing else to play.
To get chords into your repeated bars in the way you are working, you must check the box in the repeat dialog that reads "Generate (insert) New Bars". Do this when you are making a brand new repeat.

Thanks that was helpful. I wouldn't have thought this check button was essentail. Whats the point of repeating the section if you still need to perform this step. Its also a shame you can only undo the whole sheet rather than sections of it. Unless I'm again mistaken.

The checkbox is essential, because Repeats are more complex than you want to think now, with other ways of approaching them than what you are doing at the moment. Easy ways exist to recover from where you are.
Every bit of all that is explained in the Help screen you have still not yet studied.
Read it, seriously: if you invest a few minutes now, you become an expert that quickly. If questions still remain, we will have a foundation for discussion.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
