Can someone explain how I do this please?
I could not find reference to it in the manual.

Thanks for the reply Husky.

However, I tried that method and could not get a result. I thought that was how I did it previously, but now it won't work.
Must be something simple.
Edit:

I just tried another file and it imported ok.
Must be something wrong with the Profili2 airfoil file that I am trying to import.

Jim.
