When using the ArcCatalog Simple Data Loader it would be nice to allow users to hold down the shift key to select multiple datasets in the first dialog box (ex. Open Geodatabase) .  The current tool limits users to add feature classes one at a time from a particular location.  I have dozens of feature classes to load at a time.

This is an under-utilised tool.  Currently teaching desktop three, and students were wondering why it didn't work like a regular 'tool' interface....great if it could.

Hi @LuciaBarbato 

ArcGIS Desktop retired March 1, 2026 so we won’t be considering this idea. We recommend that you migrate to ArcGIS Pro, our fully supported desktop GIS application.

Thank you for taking the time to share your ideas. We truly appreciate your contributions to continuously improving the software to help you do your work and look forward to what ideas you have for ArcGIS Pro.
