Updating Exstiing Records When Importing

[RStewart]

Apologies if that has been discussed before:

If you import a set of records with the 'update existing' option checked, and the imported set has to records with the same key field value, which one will take precedence? The latter one?

Example: I am importing part number counts into the db. What if I have the same number twice in the set that is being imported (the first one being a value of 6 the second being a value of 9) Which will end up in the db?

My guess is the latter entry imported will overwrite the previous import. You could experiment with the import and verify what really happens.
