Hi Guys,

Is there any way to access a Dataset that is backed up by EXPORT command other than "IMPORT" Command.


Thanks

Hi Expat,

Many thanks for the reply. I came across this question,

Which of these does export command create?

1. A portable version of dataset that can be loaded elsewhere by using IMPORT command.

2. A file of limited resources that makes it usable only by the IMPORT command.

I am sure about the first point.. But, want to confirm on the point two.

Thanks.
