Dear all,

What kind of the import configuration should I set up to keep all existing activity codes after updating a project by importing a xer file?

I would be really appreciate for any help.

    Actually, vice versa, I want

    Actually, vice versa, I want to keep my existing codes that are not assigned in the importing xer file.

    During my experiments I figured out that the tick in in the "delete" box for the Data Type "Activities" in the Modify Import Configuration menu will delete all codes that don't exist in an importing file.

    It was a bit strange for me because I had thought that only data type "Activity Codes" could affect codes.
