Hi Jaci, I am pretty sure someone already mentioned here how to import data in to Farcry. I did a quick look in to the list archives but could not find. I will try later from home. As far as I remember isnt that hard. You need to create the types (or extend the ones it already have) on Farcry and then map to your existing database to import and create related records in referenced tables. If you are using SQL Server I also read on the internet how to create CF UUIDs from inside the database and you probabily will need that too.
