IDataSource.Import()

Description:

The Import method imports a set of landmarks to a landmark database.

This is a synchronous method.

Syntax:

result = so.IDataSource.Import(criteria);

Arguments:

criteria:

This is an object that specifies the set of landmarks to import and optionally the target database. For more information about the object properties and how to define them, see section Criteria for importing landmarks.

Return value:

The Import method returns an object that contains the imported landmarks, an error code, and an error message.

**Table:** Return value properties for Import
Property	Description	Value
`result.ReturnValue`	This is an iterator that contains the imported landmarks. Each object in the iterator is a landmark object, which contains the information for a single landmark.
`result.ErrorCode`	This is a number that specifies a predefined error code.	See Service API error codes.
`result.ErrorMessage`	This is a text string that describes the error.	See Landmarks Service API error messages.

Remarks:

If no landmark database is specified, Import is performed on the default database. If the default database does not exist, it is created and set active. The default database is file://c:eposlm.ldb.
For more information about landmarks, landmark categories, and landmark databases, see the Landmarks Service overview page.
