### Importing a DMO File

A Dmis Output File (DMO) contains measurement data in a DMIS format. This DMO import lets you import these data files into Datapage+.

1. Once you have a dmo file, on the Choose a data file screen of the wizard, choose the dmo option, click Browse, and select the dmo file.

2. Determine whether or not line switching is needed. If so, mark the Enable line switch check box, and define the character to use in the Line Switcher box. See "Importing Existing Statistical Data" for information on line switchers.

3. Click Next.

4. On the Customize the data 1 screen, choose where the imported data should reside. You have these options:

5. - Choose an existing part - This imports the data into the database part that you specify.

   - Import data into a new part - This creates a new part in the database and then imports data into that part.

   - Retrieve part name from TEXT/OUTFIL statement - This retrieves the part name from the TEXT/OUTFIL statement of the DMO file and imports the data into that part, creating a new part in the database as needed.

6. Click Next.

7. On the Customize the data 2 screen, specify the transaction name for the imported data. You have these options:

   - Create a new transaction - This lets you create a new transaction date and time. The drop down list provides fields where you can create your own date and time of the transaction.

A - Clicking this field allows you to type the transaction date in MM/DD/YYYY format.

B - Clicking this icon displays a calendar from which you can choose transaction date using your mouse.

C - Clicking these fields allow you to type the hour, minutes, and seconds of the transaction in 24-hour HH:MM:SS format.

D - Clicking these spinners will increment or decrement the selected field HH:MM:SS field.

5. - Retrieve transaction from one TEXT/OUTFIL statement - This populates the list below it with any transaction dates and times by retrieving them from the TEXT/OUTFIL statments. You can then select the transaction to use.

   - Retrieve transaction from two TEXT/OUTFIL statements - This acts like the option above, except it populates two lists, one with dates and one with times. You can choose a date and a time for the transaction from each list.

7. Click Next.

8. On the Customize the data 3 screen, mark the check boxes of those features you want to import. Click Next.

9. On the Customize the data 4 screen, mark the check boxes of those dimensions you want to import. Click Finish.

10. The Performing Operation... screen shows details of the import process. Click Cancel to close the wizard. Once the dialog box closes, the imported data will be available for selection from within Datapage+.
