Import
From DBF File
You can import records from a DBF file previously
created by an Export To DBF File function. You can only select a file
for import from a EXPIMP directory under the current user data
directory. For example, if your data directory is C:\ORGANIZER\DATA then your import directory is C:\ORGANIZER\DATA\EXPIMP. This directory is automatically created by
Export To DBF File function. This makes it easier to locate your
import/export files, especially on a multi-user system. It also
restricts access of one user to DBF files owned by other
users.
How to find Import?
The Import function can be accessed in two ways:
- from the Advanced section on the speed bar: the Import button;
- from the Advanced section on the main menu: the Import option.
Then select Import From DBF File radio button and click on
OK. You will then be asked for the import source file
name. You should not try to import from DBF files that were not
created by this program unless you are absolutely sure that the
import source file has identical structure as that used by
Organizer.
