The Manage Data Tasks dialog, where you can select a saved import or export specification.


Sometimes the wizard doesn’t recognize that the first line of a text file contains the field
names. In that case, you need to give the fields appropriate names, and then delete the
first row, with the field names as data, after the import is finished (you will probably get some Type
Conversion errors in the Import Errors table for that line). Figure 10.9 shows the table of imported
jobs data, and the Import Errors table with errors on the first row containing the field names.
