The Auto Map feature will cross reference the field names and use the required AccuZIP6 field name if the field name exists in the Auto Map list. The process only cross-references the original field name to the AccuZIP6 field name. In this case, the program will prompt you to assign the proper field names to the data with a Missing Fields window.Īssigning field names to a DBF does not change the field name.
