InDesign DataMerge: How to set "Data Source Import Options" with script?

I'm making a script for automation data merge.

I'm using the code like this - myDoc.dataMergeProperties.selectDataSource(myDataSource) - and it works good.

But I need to set Data Source Import Options (see screenshot of a dialog window) programmatically, with Script.

Is it possible to do this and how?

I would like to know the answer to this question. What page did you move to?

I was mistaken. It was a tag change, not a page move.
Either way I want this resolved. When I load a particular CSV file, it reads in ASCII encoding when it is actually Shift-JIS.
