4.

Click the Browse () button in the Merge Modules area and select the merge module file that you want to import.

5.

To import multiple merge modules, you can repeat the procedure as necessary.

6.

The order in which merge modules are applied can be changed by selecting a merge module in the list and clicking the Move Up and Move Down arrows.

7.

If you need to delete a merge module you have added, clear its check box.

A report of the import process appears on the Import tab in the Output window.
