Copying data to a browser

Data to Browser invokes Internet Explorer or a default browser that displays the table data. The
data is copied internally in standard HTML format. Internet Explorer is then invoked on a temporary
HTML file. You can then use Internet Explorer to save the contents.

NOTE:

If the table has no data, the Copy buttons are disabled.

Saving and importing system definitions

MXDM enables you to save multiple system definitions and share them with other client workstations.
System definitions are saved in a persistence file. The persistence file is a binary file that contains
state and user preference information. The persistence file includes the following information:

System definitions

User-specified options

Favorites

Statements executed from the SQL Whiteboard

SQL Whiteboard layout information

The persistence file is located in the default directory for your Windows user name. For example,
if your user name is janedoe, depending on the value of your HOME environment variable in
your workstation, the persistence file is located at:

Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\janedoe\MXDatabaseManager
Windows Vista: C:\Users\janedoe\MXDatabaseManager

However, if a different directory is specified for the HOME environment variable of your workstation,
you can save the persistence file to a different location.

To save the currently defined system definitions, perform one of the following:

On the MXDM toolbar, click Save Persistence (

).

Select File

→Save Persistence.

NOTE:

You do not need to save the persistence file. The persistence file is saved automatically

when you exit MXDM.

You can save system definitions in a data file. Subsequently, you can transfer the information to
the persistence file. To export a copy of the currently defined system definitions:
1.

Select File

→Export Persistence.

The Export Persistence dialog appears.

2.

Specify a file name and a location for the copied persistence file.

3.

Click OK.

The file is exported with the .mxdm extension.

You can import system definitions from a saved .mxdm file. When you import a persistence file,
active systems are disconnected. To import system definitions from a saved .mxdm file:
1.

Perform one of the following:

Click Import Persistence (

) on the MXDM toolbar.

Select File

→Import Persistence.

The Import Persistence dialog appears.

2.

Select the previously exported .mxdm file, and click Open.

The Confirm dialog appears.
