Golden Software Interchange .GSI Import Automation Options

Since the Import Options dialog is not displayed when the program is driven from an automation script, an options string can be specified in the script. The string consists of comma-separated parameters, which specify the behavior of the various import options. A typical example would be:

"Defaults=1,PrimaryIDField=1"

This would first set all import options to their default values, then set the PrimaryIDField option value to 1, which would specify that the field number one for each attribute ID record will be assigned to imported objects' IDs.
