Export and import configuration
SQL DataTool allows you to transport the configuration to a different system. The following data can be exported and imported using the configuration export and import functionality:
- Export location (e.g. a network share)
- Import batch records
- Database server locations
- Database
To export the configuration, open the configuration screen by clicking on the 'configure' button in the ribbon menu.

On the Configuration screen, in the Actions ribbon menu, you can find the Export and Import buttons in the Configuration section.

This option is added to the SQL DataTool to share your database connections with other users of SQL DataTool. But it also allows you to easily share a joint network location where you can share your other export files, like data models.
The default name of the configuration export file is 'configuration.sdf' and is exported to the export location in the general tab in the Configuration.
