Option at the Part library to import parts from an external file
At the Part library screen:-
● Select: Edit - Import from file
The program displays a list of files (from the path set by the System Parameter: Path for Import data)
● Select a file to import
If a part code already exists in the part library the program prompts to overwrite the code or stop the import.
The program reports any problems with the incoming data.
Setup of External files
The file type can be CSV (ASCIII text file) or the Excel formats XLS, XLSX; this is set via (Part library screen - File - Parameters). To import an external file directly to the part library the format of the external file must follow a fixed layout; this is described in the help topic: Parameters - Part library
The details of the file format are also in the: Interface guide
Notes
- Only one list can be imported at a time
