- 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.

What's the fastest way of importing a large number of tag codes
into a tag action?
Use the Replace
command instead of the Import command. The
Replace command is much faster, however it will overwrite any
existing tag codes with new ones. The Import command will append
new tags with existing tags, however it takes much longer to
process.
