Merge XML Dialog

The Merge XML dialog lets you import an XML file that contains metadata into your project. Each project automatically contains metadata but you may want to import an external metadata file if, for example, you have one from another project that you want to reuse. When you import an XML metadata file, the system merges the new file with the existing one already in the project, but you must specify how the system handles any conflicts. This dialog lets you specify how the system deals with the conflict.

This dialog contains the following fields:

• Retain existing project values

  Maintain the existing metadata values in the project.

• Overwrite existing project values with those in the XML file being selected

  Replace the existing metadata in the project with the imported metadata.
