Import CSV Data

[RobertB]

I am using the "Import CSV Data" script to load some keywords from a CSV file (first line in file is FileName,dc:subject). The keywords are loaded properly to Keywords under Details and the corresponding Catalog Labels are properly created. However the existing Catalog Labels for the file are removed. Any idea why this may be happening?

Thanks

Check in your Preferences-Read settings. There you probably have configured that keywords should replace catalog labels. Set that to merge.

But Replace is in a daily operation the better choice so I recommend to set it back to replace after the import.

Under the tab Read settings I changed "Keywords processing" to "Merge keywords with existing Catalog labels" but the results are the same.

I just had a quick look at the script and the script is the one that removes the catalog labels if keywords are part of the import. You can disable line 164 to prevent that by adding two slashes in front of it. This is how that should become:

Code: Select all

        if AReconstruct then
        begin
          //PublicCatalog.RemovePropsFromItem(ACatItem);
          PublicCatalog.ReConstructFromXMPObjectKeywords(ACatItem, AXmp, PublicOptions.XMPSyncReadSettings, False);
        end;

That works.

Thanks!
