External Mapping Files

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.
