Importing Lists and Items

You can import lists or list items previously exported from TIBCO Spotfire or TIBCO Spotfire DecisionSite. List files exported from Spotfire have the extension .lists, while list files from DecisionSite have the extension .srp or .xml. List item files always have the extension .lst when exported from either Spotfire or DecisionSite.
