Importing Songs from an XML File
To avoid having to
enter songs manually, songs can be imported from an XML File. An
XML File is simply a text file that contains one or more songs in a
standard layout. The XML File will probably have come from one of
two sources:
- From running the Export Folder feature available from the main window - either on the same computer or from a copy of SlideGen installed on a different computer.
- From a third-party provider who has agreed to supply you with an XML File for the purpose of importing their songs into SlideGen.
Some XML Files are available for import directly from the External Folders tab on the main window. These are official collections of songs provided for you by SlideGen, or via a special arrangement with a third party (e.g. the Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal)
Re-importing an XML File
If you wish to import an XML File that you have previously imported - maybe because there are new or updated songs in the file - do NOT delete the existing folder before re-importing. If you delete the folder then you will lose all copyright management history associated with the deleted songs. Instead, you should just re-import the file. Any existing songs will be automatically updated, and any new songs will be added.
