Note

If you select multiple cells and click the conversion control, the conversion takes effect on only one cell. You cannot perform batch operations because you need to set field names.

If your inbound configuration table does not contain all fields, the field values that are not bound to the fill control are also cleared. Exercise caution when you perform this operation. p712837
