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

[михаилд50082555]

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?

[Ayumi21936175rflh]

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.

See the textImportPreferences property on application object. It might work, I have not tested it though

Thanks a lot!! But, It seems not to be worked.
(textImportPreferences and DataMerge seem to be different functions..)

Since there is no critical impact, I will give this up and try to load the CSV manually.
The system for CSV is old and I will update the system in the future to export CSV in Unicode. Then the problem seems unlikely to occur.
