Importing a Structure File on the Structures Page

You may import saved .mol, .str, and .cxf structure files into My Files > Structures for storage and management.

  1. Click My Files, and then select Structures.


  2. On the Structures page, click the Import Structure button.



    You may also import a structure file directly into a folder.

  3. In the Import Structure pop-up window, click the Browse button, select the structure file or files (up to 10) to import, and then click the Open button.



    Note: Press Ctrl while clicking to select multiple files.

  4. The name of the selected structure file(s) displays in the Import Structure window; click the Pencil icon to edit the file name or the Trash icon to delete the file from the list. Click the Ok button to import the file(s).



    Important: If you attempt to import a structure that has the same file name as a structure already in My Files, you have the option to overwrite the existing file with the file being imported (Replace) or Rename the file being imported.



    Note: If the structure has validation errors, you will see the following message. Click the Open Editor button to open the Structure Editor, where you can click Save and display the error types.


  5. The structure file is added to the Structures page for future upload.
