Using the Package Maker

The Package Maker is a tool for creating update packages of your data. This allows you to transfer your data files as a “upd” package file.

You will need to specify the directory that contains your make_data and data files (.txt or .csv) and a name for the package. The utility will bundle the files into a package with the assigned name. The Package Maker will place the resulting package in the current working directory unless an absolute path/filename is specified.

Requirements

This utility requires Java version 1.4 or later. See Software Installations for Loading Data for instructions on loading the Package Maker.
