How to import text file but code the category field (or is this even needed?) Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

Hello everyone, I want to import an Excel database into SLX. I want to have these coded with a special code such as NB - new database or something in the category field for use in running special email blasts to this database. Is this possible to do when importing to include the category field?

If not, what is the best way to import thousands of leads and categorize them so I can filter those out in SLX/Swift Page to do a custom email blast only to these leads?

Yes, simply add a new field to store it - oruse the provided ImportSource (char(24)) to put in the text of what the import was/where from.
