after that article provided little help, i have the answer from rockwell.

Click RS enterprise, click comms setup, click local tab, add the device (down to the PLC) then save as a shortcut. Also point the BROWSE to the .acd that u are programming in. click apply and OK

Insert a datapoint, then browse to the OFFLINE tag....it may take several minutes to load, but it will be there. Heres to hoping my pain = someones joy

That is the way I do most of my SE/ME programming, but just be clear, that is NOT 'Importing' the tag database from the PLC. That is known as "Direct Tag Referencing", and is done on a individual animation (or tag database entry).
