Mapping of external data

Hi There,

Every time I link external data to my label in IDA I need to click on each data field on my label and map the field on the data label with the source data in the external CSV file. Why can one not map the source data column to the data field on the label? I it quite erroneous to have to click on each data item on the label each time one links new datasets but the column headers remained the same in the external source data file (CSV). Please add a function where one can map the headers of the source data with the fields on the label only once. I can understand to have to relink the external data if the column headers in the external data has changed for one to do the remapping. Thanks.

Operating System: Windowns 11

Application: Excel, CSV
