Importing the Change History List
You can import a Change History into a workspace. Once imported, the changes are applied to the active table in the Prepare Window
-
In the Prepare window, select the table you want to apply the Change History to.
-
Do one of the following:
-
Select Import Change List from the application menu.
-
Select Import Change List from the menu bar at the top of the Change History panel.
-
-
In the Open dialog that displays, navigate to the location of your change history file and then select it. The file must have a .dpcl extension.
-
Select Open.
Important Notes:
-
Changes are applied to the new table in sequence as they appear in the Change History list.
-
This operation assumes that the current table has columns with the same name and data type as the table from which the Change History was exported. For instance, if a date column named Ship Date was converted to date from text, the import Change History operation will look for a date column named Ship Date in the current table and then convert this to text. If such a column cannot be found, an error message will be displayed.
-
When adding either a named filter or named sort, if the table in question has an error in its Change History, a warning displays. In this case, the errors must be fixed prior to the addition of the filter or sort.
