import-template?

[Orlando L.]

In terms of table fields, I was wondering if it could be possible to create an import template, which I could later use once I decide to work on my final Filemaker file. The idea is be able to study and remove unnecessarily fields from a current .dbf file during import mode, once I have already deciphered which will be the last version to use in production, when everything runs on Filemaker.

What I want to avoid is to start depending on my testing Filemaker file, to be used as the final working file. I prefer to have several things being tested in one place, and then if it will work as desired, then I import them into my final Filemaker file which will work in production. Similar to what can be accomplished with scripts that can be moved from one file into another.

regards,
