While setting up the Export or Import variables, the external mapping files are initially tested to see if they are valid. At the top of each file is a check line indicating that the file is related to AVEVA Bocad Steel. The check line must be of the form:
AVEVA BOCAD
Note:
Tab characters are not permitted in the mapping files.
Comments may be included in the mapping files. They are indicated by a hash (#) character
as the first non-blank character on the line.
Blank lines are also permitted.
