Search for Data Outside RIMMF

Quick Steps

You can search for data outside RIMMF from anywhere in RIMMF (while you are in a record, in a template, or at the main menu):

Import

If you are importing a record so that you can link to it for a relationship, then invoke this option from where you want to add the link.

Note If you cursor was in a field that is not appropriate for the record that you import, no link will be made to the imported record. For example, if you began your <F3> search from the text box of a RIMMF Identifier for a Work and found and imported a record for a Person, Family, or Corporate Body, then a link to that imported record not be made (because it was not appropriate for the box in which your cursor is situated).

Edit

One you have imported and added the converted record to your RIMMF database, you can edit it in RIMMF, as usual.
