Reads foreign data(base) formats, creates a new ARB database,
and imports the foreign data. A selection of commonly used
foreign formats can be automatically identified. Data can be
imported from single or multiple files.
Type a source file name to the 'Enter file name of foreign
database' subwindow. Use * and ? as multiple and single
character wild carts to load a set of files, respectively.
Alternatively you may select a file from the directories and
files subwindow.
Make a selection whether you want to import
-
a full genome flatfile (in GENBANK or EMBL format) or
-
normal sequence files.
In the second case select the file format from the
'Select foreign database format' subwindow
or press the 'AUTO DETECT' button.
If your file type is not in the list and you are only
interested in the sequence, try 'universal'.
Enter an 'alignment' name. This allows you to distinguish between
different alignments in the same datebase later.
Press the 'GO' button.
