    DataBuilder ExportXml
    In This Topic

    To transfer data between two VistaDB databases using Data Builder use the XML Import and Export feature found under the File menu.  You can select the table(s) you want to export and indicate whether you want to include relationship links or not in the resulting XML file.  This file can then be imported into another VistaDB database using the same feature.

    This feature is the best way of transferring data between two VistaDB databases but isn't particularly good for transferring schema since it won't include all indexes, views, functions, or other elements of the original schema.  For transferring schema see Data Builder - Generate Schema Deployment Script.

    The export is implemented using the native capability of the ADO.NET DataSet class, so it's easy to access the same data programmatically.
