Importing Projects From Other Databases
A project can be imported into any HyperSizer database. Importing projects is necessary when the project is protected, for example, when it belongs to another user or is in a training database, or when the project is in a database from a previous version.
Notes:
- Projects can be imported from databases created in previous versions of HyperSizer.
- If an imported project has the same name as an existing project, you will be prompted to rename the project.
- During project import, materials assigned to the imported project will also be imported.
- When a project is imported, the user becomes the owner and can makes changes to the project.
