Once Data Archiver has been run, all archived data can be restored to the original Database (or imported to a new Database) using any of the eight DataSmith Translator (*.4DataSmith) files provided with your installation of CM4D. At any time, refer to the DataSmith Help Documentation for more information regarding translators, High Volume Data, interactively putting data into a Database, etc.
The following translators can be found in the ATS CM4D installation folder: CM4D/Support Files/Archive Restore Translators
