How to merge or reference different .eap files?
« on: February 13, 2015, 09:56:39 am »
If I'm developing a file A.eap and I want to refer to model information in file B.eap, how do I do it?  Ideally, I'd like simply to reference the info in B.eap from A.eap, so that changes in B will be felt by A.  But I realize that's probably too much to hope for.  So at least, how can I bring the B.eap models into A.eap?

Search the help for controlled packages. It streamlines the export/import operations a little bit.

Yes, it seems so -- at least you've given something to go on. Thanks! I have to see if I can make it work ...  I appreciate your prompt reply! :)
