--------------- New / Enhanced | 3/12/21

* Standards> Setup>Standards

- New import/export feature added.

- Export: There is now an export icon located on all Stand Sets. This export will create a single row for each CPI in the standards set and will include all information pertaining to it including the Content Area, Standard, Strand, Content Statements, etc.

- Import: You may now import Excel files based on the export file specs. A 'Create Blank Template File' is included to start o new file. If importing using a new Set Code (one that does not currently appear in your Standards list), a new Standard set will be created. If importing using an existing Set Code, that existing Standard Set will be updated/appended to only. An option to overwrite/replace what is currently there is also available.

- It is recommended that you download and examine an exiting Standard Set export file before attempting to upload a file on your own.

- Standard sets that you import can be deleted from the Standards list page so feel free to practice.
