longncsu Posted July 27, 2001 Share Posted July 27, 2001 I have several files related by a master ID. I want to import data from one file to another. When I run the import script I want it to check that the records being imported are not duplicates and stop the if there are duplicates. Is this possible and how would you do it?

rhakka Posted July 27, 2001 Share Posted July 27, 2001 you want to stop the import instead of just not importing the duplicates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattc Posted July 27, 2001 Share Posted July 27, 2001 To avoid importing duplicates, you can 'Update matching records' and 'Add remaining' in the import dialog. Match records on your Master ID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longncsu Posted July 28, 2001 Author Share Posted July 28, 2001 rhakka -- I would still like a way to stop the import script if their are duplicates. But using the'Update matching records' and 'Add remaining' in the import dialog will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
