To import or export list values
You can import or export existing list values for reuse. List items are imported and exported using list file. A list file is a text file with the .lst extension. After you setup list items on one workstation, use the List Editor to export list files, and then on other workstations, you can use the List Editor to import the list files. Sharing list files allows multiple users to use a common set of fields between cases.
