Export/Import Categories

The program allows you to work with Image Co-Tracker databases created at other computers. You can both export a particular category and the whole database. Cogitum LC has developed a special file format for this purpose. The ICT file provides an ôinterfaceö between the two computers, as shown below:

To export your category for working at other computers:
1. Select a category you want to export in the drop-down list. If you want to export the whole database select "All Categories"
2. Click the Export button or select Tools->Export from the menu. The Export window will appear
3. Select a folder where you want to save the exported file
4. By default a file with the same name as the current category will be created. If "All categories" was selected the file with the same name as the current image catalog will be created. To change the name of the file enter a new name in the Filename edit box.
5. Click Save

To work with categories created at other computers:
1. Click the Import button or select Tools->Import from the menu. The Import window will appear
2. Select a file you want to import
3. Click Open
. 4. Select a folder where you want to store the imported catalog. By default a catalog with the same name as the imported file will be created. To allow you to differ the Image Co-Tracker catalogs an imported catalog will have an .ic extension.
