IMEX is not imported to new database #3

Open cenx1 opened 4 years ago

Having a database exported using https://github.com/joyfullservice that contains Import/Export templates (IMEX located in tables MSysIMEXSpecs and MSYSIMEXColumns), does not get added to the compiled database.

Correct, the code for exporting tables specifically skips anything that starts with "MSys" OR "~". This comes from the historical upstream project. The reason is that system tables are not editable. If you want to save Import/Export specifications then additional code needs to be added to handle that.

OK, I see. I will try and look into this.

I think this has been resolved in upstream. Please use the compile feature in the latest version of the version control add-in: https://github.com/joyfullservice/msaccess-vcs-integration
