I have an Excel file with Personal Contact Info I would like to import into my Filemaker database. However, in Filemaker, the Personal info (e.g. First Name, Last Name, etc) is stored separately from the Addresses, Phone, Email records. The tables are related via a unique identifier.

Whenever I try to import the data, I don't see an option to map the fields to different tables. It only lets me select the table in the current view.

Does anyone know how to do what I'm trying to achieve?

Thanks!

You can not import to two different tables at the same time. You have to import them into each table separately. Another option is to import it into a temp table and then script it to create the records and its corresponding child records into each table with a loop script.
