Step 4: Selecting A Template

A template is essentially a set of instructions for transferring the selected object type to, or creating the selected

object type from a Shapefile. The Convert Dialog provides us with a list of available templates for the conversion

we have selected and allows us to manage the templates using the New, Delete, and Edit buttons (when

converting a .shp file for the first time you are required to create a template.) In the next

section,“Field Transfer Templates” on page 34, we will discuss templates in greater detail. However, for now, let’s

just accept that we must select a template from the provided list. In (Figure 36) we have selected the Prescription

To SHP template.
