2. Type in or browse to the archive file you want to import, and click Next.

3. If the selected archive file imports correctly, you will see an Import Message Handler Archive wizard Summary page similar to that shown in the following figure.

   The message handler archive now appears in the Services window as a child node of the Environment, and the message handler itself (in this case, a pair of them) as a child node of the archive, as shown in the following figure.

4. If the archive file did not import properly, you will see an error message on the Import Message Handler Archive wizard Summary page. You will then need to determine the reason for the failure to import.
