Importing IDOs

To import an IDO that was exported from a different Objects database:

  1. On the IDO Import Wizard form, click Browse and specify a directory path and a filename for the file to be imported.

    The IDOs contained in the file you identified are displayed.

    The file must have been created with the IDO Export Wizard, and the file type must be XML.

    Note: In a partial trust situation or in the web client, there is no Import File Name field or Browse button. Instead, you must click Import XML and use the Import Binary Data From File dialog box to locate and upload the XML file you want from your local computer.
  2. In the IDOs IDOs To Import section, select one of these options:
    • To import all IDOs contained in the XML file, select All.
    • To import only some IDOs, select Selected and then select the IDOs you want.
  3. When you have selected all the objects to import, click OK.
