Import the Transaction File

Transaction definitions are added your Enterprise Developer project by importing them from your exported transaction file into a compiled project component file named IMSGEN2.DAT. This file is created automatically during the import process, or if imsgen2.dat already exists, the transaction definitions contained in your transaction file are added to it during the import process.

  1. Open an Enterprise Developer command prompt.
  2. Change to the directory that contains your transaction file.
    Note: If you want to import into an existing imsgen2.dat file, be sure that either the transaction file and the imsgen2.dat file are in the current directory, or that you have set the ES_IMSLIB environment variable to point to the location of the imsgen2.dat file.
  3. Enter the following:
    mfims stage1imp transactionfile [ADDREPL] [DELEXIST]

    where:

    transactionfile The transaction file created from a stage 1 file or from Enterprise Server.
    ADDREPL If the imsgen2.dat already exists, specifies adding new transactions and replacing existing transactions. If you do not specify ADDREPL, new transactions are added but existing transactions are left unchanged.
    DELEXIST If the imsgen2.dat already exists, specifies that all the existing transaction definitions in the imsgen2.dat file be deleted before importing extracted transactions.
