*** This has nothing to do with Importing data. This is about Merging data to external files/html/Word/XLS,etc.
In development, when you Import a template, Its loading it into the database.
At execution time, it is read from the DB and context rows are merged into it, and then onto Display, File, etc.
So, if a customer needs to alter some physical aspect of the way the output looks, TO ME it appears they cannot just change the HTML/TXT file out on the file system/server, but it has to be re-imported into the DB.
But I don't see a Runtime way to do that.
There is an IMPORT FILE command, but I'm not trying to load an object into a container in a BO.
Certainly there is a way to do this without need the "development system"?
