Saving and loading import and export settings
The import and export dialog boxes allow you to save and load your settings to and from disk.
You can carry out this operation using the import-export dialog boxes of files.
To save or load the import or export settings, click on the Save Settings or Load Settings buttons at the bottom of the dialog box:
Import and export settings files have the extension ".4SI". A settings file stores all the settings specified in the Import or Export editor:
- Name and access path of file,
- Tables and fields selected and the name of the form, the export uses a form,
- Import and export options (file type, delimiters, etc.).
This feature allows you to automate the import or export process.
