Importing related records confusion

[lpm]

What is the best way to import a found set of records and all of their related records from File A (the solution file) to File B (the archive file)? I have imported whole tables of data before from one file to another, but I have never imported an individual record or a found set of records from a table along with all of their related records from other tables. There’s probably a fairly simple way to do this and perhaps my brain is on vacation, but I’m really confused about this today and need some help. TIA

Go to FileA and find your set of records for both the parent and the child records ( using GTRR ) and keep the file open.

Then open FileB and import into the tables that you want to import the parent and children into. If you have the source file ( FileA ) open, it will only import the found set records. If the source file is closed though, it will import all the records.
