Hello, I'm newbie in Mendix, just finished the Rapid developer Path. I'm now looking for the ways to import and synchronize external data (both Excel Files and As400 DB2 files) in a Mendix application. The current direction is just for the moment Import inside Mendix. I've found and successfully integrated in my test application 'Excel Importer' and 'Database Replication' apps. I've red the whole documentations linked to each app, but this does not allow me to make the app running. I'm currently locked with this apps when I'm asked to choose an ObjectType. When I click the arrow at the right of the fields, I can't find what to enter in the parameters to select and object type. Also trying 'new template' by Excelfile' Button, I can import all the column headers, but afterwards, each trial to use a found column leads to the following message "A MetaObject must be selected before a column can be created or changed.". Can somebody guide me or/and tell me where to find a working example or a detailed documentation explaining how to proceed with at least ObjectType. Regards.
