[EnergyPlus_Support] Import from Window5

Hi!
I am trying to import layer data from window5 to energyplus.

Energyplus v.4.0 input-output reference page 284 reads:

"If  there  is  a  window  called  ConstructionName  on  the  Window5
data  file,  the  data  for  that
window  is  read  from  the  file  and  the  following  EnergyPlus
objects  and  their  names  are
created.  The  “W5”  prefixed  to  these  names  indicates  that  the
object  originated  in  the
Window5 data file. "

I created a window using the default Window5DataFile.dat file but I do
not see any W5:ConstructionName:GLASS1, GLASS2, etc. in the idf file.
I must be missing some step.  Is there anywhere a detailed explanation
on how to import Window5 windows?

Cheers

Vincent
