When to Use LoadFromFile and Import/Export

LoadFromFile, LoadFileSet, and the import/export framework are tools for moving data. Simply put:

• LoadFromFile is used for loading a single file into a Windchill system during the initial setup of the system.

• LoadFileSet is used for loading multiple files into a Windchill system during the initial set up of the system.

• The import/export framework is the data exchange between two existing systems.

The data loaders (LoadFromFile and LoadFileSet) and the import/export framework support different object types:
