Remarks

The ImportWorkspace method imports a geodatabase workspace schema and data.

In order to import a workspace, you need to pass in IEnumNameMapping and IWorkspace.  The inFile is a string that identifies the input XML filename.  The filename must have a "xml" file extension, for example, "c:\temp\file.xml".  Otherwise, the inFile is a .ZIP or .Z file extension.

If you set schemaOnly to TRUE, the imported workspace will contain the schema and no data.  Otherwise, the workspace being imported will contain schema and data.
