- 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.

5. Select which tag sessions will be created by checking the corresponding box
under the Save column. Use the Select All or Clear All buttons to quickly
select/clear all of the imported tag files.
Note: Some files that have too many validation errors or are not a tag file
will not be allowed to be saved. These files will be marked with a large red 'X'
(like 'Logfile.txt' in the example for step 3).
6. Optionally, select a header template
to associate with all of the new tag
sessions.
7. Press OK to create all of the tag sessions from the selected tag files.
Importing Tag Sessions
New to P3 is a feature that allows tag sessions
to be directly imported from another
database. This feature allows one or more tag sessions to be directly imported from
either a PITTag2 database (pittag.mdb) or a P3 database (p3.mdb).
Tip: Use this feature when upgrading from PITTag2 to automatically transfer all tag
sessions from the old version to the new.
Steps for Importing Tag Sessions
1. Select the Import->Tag Session command located under the File menu.
2. Select the type of database file to import from (P3.mdb or pittag.mdb) from
the Files of type drop-down. Then locate and select a database file and press
Open.
