How to import material data from a database

In the main toolbar, click File | Import.
Select the database you wish to import from. You can choose a full HyperSizer database (*.hdb) or a materials only database (*.mdb).
Click Open.

The project import form will appear. See Project Import.
(Optional) Click Advanced to import data not associated with a particular project. See Import Options.

Select Import Materials and Stocklists. This option will import every material from the database regardless of whether or not they are assigned to an imported project.
