Dear Peter Thanks for your reply.
I can import an html report (e.g. FastQC output) successfully into a new history from a data library. But the .dat file for the html is not empty like the one for the blastdb. Makes me think that I could do this with a blast db as well, if only it would not check for size 0 at the time of importing it.
