Hmmm…

Not sure if I have discovered a hidden feature/capability, but this is what I found.

I did an extract of a package which contained several sub-packages. in the extract file, I inserted a number of blank rows and filled them with elements I wanted to import. When I did the import, the new rows were all inserted properly as children of the parent sub-package. This is precisely what I had intended.

Further investigation indicates that this does NOT work when I attempt to export/import children of elements. The only solution in that case is to import the children to the parent package and then move them to the appropriate element. I have yet to see if doing that will cause issues in crafting eaDocX extracts of the target elements.
