Add Command (Tools Menu)

Description

Adds files to the currently open Package file.

A dialog box is displayed allowing you to ch1oose files you want to add to the package file. After selecting files you want to add, the files will be added to the bottom of the contents list.

Adding a file to a Package File can be slow or fast depending on the type of file that is open, the size of that file, the size of the file being added and the speed of your system.

If the contents list is being sorted, the files will not appear at the bottom of the list but will be sorted straight away. This is important if you are working with files that share common names.

Note

Sometimes a file being imported may have a name that is not valid inside the Package file. For instance, the file MyLongFile does not have an extension, and does not follow the 8.3 naming convention used in HOG files. In this case, the name will be changed so that it is valid (in this case the name will be shortened to MyLongFi.) You may rename it after Packafied has finished adding the file.
