The file name in the Select File field will be one of the following defaults,
in decreasing order of priority:
an .AMG file with the same name as the currently edited file
the first .AMG file in the selection list
a blank, if no .AMG files exist in the current directory
Choose Select File if you need to change the file name. A list of all .AMG
files in the current default directory appears. Choose the one you want to
change.
If the file is not in the current default directory, choose Directory to specify
the directory containing the file. The name of the specified directory will
be retained between PanelBuilder sessions.
Once the file is selected, PanelBuilder checks the current application file to
determine whether any alarm messages have already been defined. If any
messages are found, PanelBuilder displays this message:

Choose Cancel Import or Continue. If you choose to continue,
PanelBuilder checks each record in the message file to make sure its
format is valid. If any errors are found, an error message will be displayed,
the import will be cancelled and the currently defined messages will
remain intact.
