<br />
<span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size">To import from Google KML</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size"> 1. Click Insert tab Import panel Map Import .</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size"> 2. In the Import Location dialog box, under Files Of Type, select Google KML.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size"> 3. Select the file or folder to import. Click OK.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size"> 4. In the Import Dialog Box, under Spatial Filter, specify whether to limit the area where data will be imported:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size">  - None — Place no area limits on the incoming file.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size">  - Current Display — Limit the import to the current drawing area.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size">  - Define Window — Limit the import to an area you define. To use this option, click Select. Respond to the prompts to define the area.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size">  5. Specify the import settings for each input layer (see the Import dialog box for details).</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size">  - Drawing Layer— Select a target layer for each layer in the incoming file.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size">  - Object Class— Assign incoming objects to an existing object class and map incoming attribute data to the data fields in the object class. The Object Class fields are available only if you have object classes defined in your map.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size">  - Input Coordinate System— Specify the coordinate system of the incoming file. If the drawing has a coordinate system assigned to it, incoming objects are converted to the coordinate system of the drawing.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size">  - Data— For each layer, specify how to import data.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size">  - Points— For each layer, specify how to treat incoming point objects.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size"> 6. By default, polygons are imported as polygon objects. To import them as closed polylines, select Import Polygons As Closed Polylines.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size"> 7. Click OK to begin the import process.</span>]]></description>
