====== Database parameter import ======

This tab (called Database tab) is located in the edit block window, which opened by right clicking or quick-double clicking on the block. This tab allows you to quickly import values to a specific parameter from either the local or external database. If you follow the same naming conventions in your model and database, this tab can also help a lot in finding relevant parameter values by using the “auto-match” feature.

The procedure is simple: search the database using specific criteria, then assign values to the parameter by selecting indices from the “match” column of the result table.

===== Search =====

This tab lets you give criteria for a database search.

  * **Search** - Click this button to start the search in the search field.
  * **Type** - The type of parameter
  * **Tags** - Tags that are assigned to the parameter
  * **Dependencies** - The type of dependence, for instance “Element” or “Nuclide”.
  * **Usability** - A description of the Usability Level.
  * **Users** - The user who entered the parameter value into the database.
  * **Reference** - A reference for the parameter, for instance to literature or a report.
  * **Max hits** - The maximum number of search hits to present in the table. This limit is necessary when searching a very large database, or when using wildcards in the search name.

Underneath the search constraints a list of available parameters from DataBase will appear after clicking on the Search button {{:autozoom24.png?20}}. Once the user finds the parameter with the value that should be imported, user should select it and press the import button{{:databaseimport24.png?20}}.
