Adding new fields and using the DataPort

Post by Mike718NY » Thu Aug 13, 2009 9:25 am

If I add a new field to the ac_Products table,
can I import data to that field using the DataPort?

If you retain the import facility for custom fields then better make use of ac_ProductCustomFields. Read following thread about how to use this table
