  1. LINES ;;The initial install of the Encounter Form Utilities at your site
  1. ;;included a toolkit of forms and blocks. The ONLY SAFE METHOD for
  1. ;;transferring additional forms and blocks between sites is through this
  1. ;;IMPORT/EXPORT UTILITY.
  1. ;;
  1. ;;The IMPORT/EXPORT UTILITY includes a set of files that are nearly
  1. ;;identical to the files used by the ENCOUNTER FORM UTILTIES to contain
  1. ;;the form descriptions. These import/export files constitute a WORK
  1. ;;SPACE in which forms and blocks can be safely exported (to other sites)
  1. ;;and imported (from other sites to your own).
  1. ;;
  1. ;;You should have a PACKAGE entry for the IMPORT/EXPORT UTILITY already
  1. ;;set up. The files listed should be in the range 358 to 358.91.
  1. ;;The package entry is named IB ENCOUNTER FORM IMP/EXP, and the prefix
  1. ;;is IBDE. The package entry is necessary to accomplish EXPORT.
  1. ;;
  1. ;;
  1. ;;TO IMPORT:
  1. ;;
  1. ;; 1) The other site must have prepared a set of inits, using this
  1. ;; utility, that contain the forms and toolkit blocks they want to
  1. ;; transfer.
  1. ;;
  1. ;; 2) The work space MUST NOT ALREADY CONTAIN any forms or blocks that
  1. ;; you want to keep. First decide what you want to do with anything
  1. ;; that is already in the workspace. The work space will be cleared
  1. ;; before the inits are executed, so anything there will be lost.
  1. ;;
  1. ;; 3) You must execute the inits, using this this utility, by choosing
  1. ;; the action RUN INITS. The init should normally be named IBDEINIT.
  1. ;;
  1. ;; 4) The work space should now contain forms and toolkit blocks. You
  1. ;; can choose which ones you want, then choose the action IMPORT
  1. ;; ENTRY to actually make the form or block available for use. The
  1. ;; forms can not be viewed while in the work space, but you can view
  1. ;; the IMPORT/EXP NOTES.
  1. ;;
  1. ;;TO EXPORT:
  1. ;;
  1. ;; 0) Only users with PROGRAMMER ACCESS can export.
  1. ;;
  1. ;; 1) First clear the work space of anything you do not want to export.
  1. ;;
  1. ;; 2) Then add any forms or blocks to the work space that you do want
  1. ;; to export.
  1. ;;
  1. ;; 3) Add EXPORT/IMPORT NOTES to each entry you add to the work space.
  1. ;; You must accuratly describe the form for the site that you are
  1. ;; exporting it to. They will be able to view the notes, but they
  1. ;; will not be able to view the form itself until they import it.
  1. ;;
  1. ;; 4) Then, through the DIFROM action that is part of this utility,
  1. ;; create the inits that will be sent to the other site.
  1. ;;
  1. ;; 5) Send the inits to the other site.
