Working with Tags

Publication 2706-817

When the Import function has finished importing the tags, the
Summary Report dialog opens.

Select View Report to check it over.

Select Save Report to save it to a file. A report must be saved
before it can be printed.

Select OK to return to the Tag Editor Table View.

To handle data collisions

If two or more tags have the same name, this dialog opens.

Important: The Import function does not check for duplicate

addresses, only duplicate names.

Click:

The Import utility will:

Ignore conflicting tags. The tags in the project
remain, and the conflicting ones in the Import source
file are discarded.

Rename conflicting tags. The Import function adds
an extension to duplicate tags

_# (where # is 1, 2 or 3)

After three tags of the same name are renamed, any
more imported tags of that name are discarded.

Update the tags in the project with the data from the
imported tags.

Exit the Import/Export utility and return to the Tag
Editor.
