If your import file does not have a header, click Field Mapping. Data from the import file is shown on the left-hand of the window while Alexandria field names are shown on the right. Fields are matched and imported in order. Use the arrows to move the Alexandria fields up and down to match them with the fields in your import file. Fields with a green checkmark will be imported and fields with a red X will not. Go through each field to make sure it's being set correctly—click the green checkmark to change it to an X, or click the X to change it to a checkmark. When you've finished matching Alexandria fields to the information in your file, click Set. |
