How can i export/import limits from an external text file?

[OnlyOne]

Hello,

i have ~1000 teststeps with limits in my testplan.

Now i want to import the limits from a textfile.

What do i have to do?

Create a StationGlobal for each limit and create a new teststep (which must be called 1000x) which reads an inifile and outputs the limit into the StationGlobal at start of testplan?
Something like: GetLimit("c:\limits.ini","teststep230_low", out value)

OR

Is there a builtin method to export all limits into a file and re-import this file automatically at teststart?

Thanks for help

You can use the Import/Export tool (Tools>>Import/Export Properties...) to export your items and then use the Property Loader step to import them.

I should have noted that there are shipping examples that show how to do this.
