3. Click the import button
4. In the resulting dialog box, define the file you will import
   1. In the "use this file" box type the path or browse to the location of the file
   2. In the "Field Delimiter" box, verify that the character is the same as the delimiter in the text file (The default is a comma for CSV files.)
   3. In the "String Delimiter" box, verify that the character is the same as the delimiter in the text file. This is optional, but is good practice to use.
   4. Choose to delimit Rows by line or by pipe.

   Note: For each row, fields will be entered in order. If inactive status will be set on import, all alias fields must be accounted for on the row. For example, to add an inactive row for Chevrolet it would look like this: "Chevrolet","Chevy",,,,,"i"
