- Tip: the Replace command will import tag codes much faster than the Import command. Use the Import command only when appending a relatively small number of tag codes (less than 25k) to a tag action.
- Tip: the Delete All and Replace commands will generate a lot of empty space in the P3 database. We recommend running the Compact and Repair utility after running any of these commands to optimize the database.

Answers
Do I have to export all of my tag sessions from PITTag2 to import
them into P3?
The Import Tag Session
feature located under File menu heading will
allow you to quickly import all of the tag sessions currently in your
PITTag2 database.
Note: make sure you select PITTag2 Database (pittag2.mdb) in the
File of Type drop-down box.
I have the wrong File Name Prefix for a tag session, how do I fix it?
By specification, the file name prefix (zzz) and Julian date (YYDDD)
portion of the Tag File
header field (zzzYYDDD.xxx) cannot be
modified. The file name prefix
comes from a setting in the active
profile when the tag session is created.
If the wrong file name prefix is used on a tag session that contains
detail records, create a new tag session with the correct prefix and
use the Merge Tag Sessions
tool to transfer the detail records in the
original tag session to the new tag session.
