Import/ Export from WINISIS Databases with Different Structure
• If structure of the databases is not same then a reformatting FST file is to be created which tells the system that tag contents of one database is to be redirected to a different tag in the other database
![Page 6: Data Conversion By Rachna Kapoor Information Scientist Thapar Centre for Industrial Research & Development, Patiala](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649e555503460f94b4cd85/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Import/ Export from WINISIS Databases with Different Structure
A reformatting FST file could be the following:1 0 mfn [output field] containing the MFN100 0 (v1/) [output field 100 same as input field
1 (use of a repeatable group in the format to output each occurrence of field 1 as a separate line)]
200 0 v2[output field 200 same as input field 2]300 0 |<|v3|>|[output field 300 contains keywords
enclosed in <…>, each keyword taken from one occurrence of input field 3]
