Data is the life-blood of your PartExpert catalog. In order to use the parts lookup system, you need valid, current data. The Data Update Utility makes it easy to load your system with the latest Activant catalog data.
The Data Update Utility downloads data from either CD-ROMs or a DVD to your hard drive for use by the catalog engine. It can read the data either from a CD / DVD drive on the local machine, or from a drive on another machine in the network.
For detailed instructions see Updating Data.
