Saving Individual Change Commands

If you have created multiple change commands (i.e. there are multiple rows in the Command input tab), all the commands will be saved together in one file.  To save individual commands, you must save the commands before creating others.

Loading Saved Change Commands from Your Local Computer

Choose Global Update from the Function list.

Choose the Command input tab.  If the Choose Command Type dialog box appears, choose the X or Cancel button to close it.

Choose File and Load (Local).

In the Open dialog box, navigate to the drive and folder containing the file of saved commands.  If you created a folder, highlight the folder and click on the Open button. You will have to find the command file you want to use and click the Open button.

If you did not create a folder, highlight the file and click on the Open button.

This will add the saved command to the Command input tab for Global Updates. You will still be able to Add, Delete, Edit, Duplicate or Clear the command.
