90 Chapter 8 Importing, Exporting, and Printing
Importing into an Existing Library
If you want the information that you are importing to go into an existing library,
import the file into that library. Bento creates new records in the library.
You can also import a file into a collection. When you choose a collection as the target
for the import, Bento creates new records in the library that contains that collection,
and adds the new records to the collection.
To import information into an existing library or collection:
1 Choose File > Import > File.
Click the pop-up and
select a field name to
manually map the fields
set to “Do not import.”
Use the arrows to go to
the row that contains
column names, then
select “Use this record’s
values as column names.”
Choose a file. The options
you see here vary
according to the file
format of the selected file.
