expression Required. An expression that returns one of the objects in the Applies To list.
Data Required String. The data to import.
ImportMap Required XmlMap. The schema map to apply when importing the file.
Overwrite Optional Boolean. If a value is not specified for the Destination parameter, then this parameter specifies whether or not to overwrite data that has been mapped to the schema map specified in the ImportMap parameter. Set to True to overwrite the data or False to append the new data to the existing data. The default value is True. If a value is specified for the Destination parameter, then this parameter specifies whether or not to overwrite existing data. Set to True to overwrite existing data or False to cancel the import if data would be overwritten. The default value is True.
Destination Optional Range. The data will be imported into a new XML list in the range specified.
Remarks
Don't specify a value for the Destination parameter if you want to import data into an existing mapping.
The following conditions will cause the XMLImport method to generate run-time errors:
- The specified XML data contains syntax errors.
- The import process was cancelled because the specified data cannot fit into the worksheet.
