The program will create a separate borehole record for each well number, based on the overwrite options you specified. The program will import the well location data based on the mappings you established.
Stratigraphic top depths, and formation names, will be recorded to the Stratigraphy data table.
The formation names listed in the import file will be written to the database's Stratigraphy Types Table.
In the GDSII format the deleted record (DEL), thickness (THK), coal thickness (COL), repeated tops and fault records are ignored. The information in these records do not exist in the flat file format.
