DIF import export

DIF Organizer importing

The DIF import feature populates certain fields within Organizer. There are three components of Organizer importing: Import DIF screen, DIF import file, and DIF template file.

DIF Import Dialog

You can import from anywhere in the Organizer using the Import DIF dialog box. You can open the dialog box by selecting
Tools
, then
Import
.
Specify the DIF import file and DIF template file to import.
  • The DIF Import File area gives you the location and filename of the DIF import file. The DIF Import File contains the data to be imported into the Organizer. Import source files for Organizer must be in the Data Interchange Format. You can create an import file in a spreadsheet program such as Microsoft Excel. Import source files are usually referred to as “DIF files.”
  • The DIF Template File area gives you the location and filename of the Organizer import template (KAT file). Import templates act as a “road-map” for data from the DIF import file to specific fields within Organizer. Import template files have the extension KAT and cannot be opened or edited using Microsoft Excel. Import template files are usually referred to as “KAT files.”
Select
