Importing Library Data Overview

You can import data into the CircuitWorks Component Library when you first install CircuitWorks or when you recreate an installation in a new location. Importing data avoids CircuitWorks having to recreate existing parts.

  • Importing Parts from a File

    You can import a text file containing component data into the Component Library. The comma-separated value (CSV) or other character delimited file you import is created when you or another user exports a Component Library.

  • Importing Parts from a Database

    You can import all the data from an existing Component Library into your library. Use this capability to upgrade a Microsoft Access (*.mdb) Component Library database file to the SQLite (*.db) format.

  • Component Library Data File Format

    The data file created by CircuitWorks when you export the Component Library is the same as is required when you import the data file.
