Thanks, Slacker. Your reply gave me the idea I needed to solve my problem.

"Import" is my term, not an official SOPC Builder function.

Apparently, SOPC Builder will scan whatever directories are named in the IP search path list and include IP in the component list for every block that is described with a V/TCL file pair. My SOPC Builder didn't have any IP search directories (not even my project directory).

The IP search path can be entered from the Tools/Options/IP search path dialog box.
