Import and keep Property loader values.

$

Hello all, 

 

We use the property loader very heavily here. We use it to import hundreds of limits and sometimes we use it to import the Comparison Type, Lower/Upper Limit, the Units (of measurement) and the numeric format. This makes our code very easy to change but it also makes it very hard to read because the limits are only populated at run-time. I was hoping to be able to use a property loader step located within the 'SequenceFileLoad' call back so that every time the file is opened the user may read all limits and such. 

 

My problem is that the property loader does not keep the parameter values after run-time. I was able to do this by using the Import/Export Tool and then selecting the "Import" option at the bottom of the windows. This works great! 

 

Now my problem is that i cannot automate the use of the Import/Export Tool because i dont know how to place this step as an 'action'. Is there any way to use this tool as an action? Or any other way to automate this process?

 

regards,

-ES
