Export a Procedure Library Interactively

To export a procedure library following the on screen prompts:

1. Use the following command:

swutil EXPORTLIB /pathname [directory]

where:

pathname is the full path name of the library you want to export (as displayed in the Procedure Manager.)

For example, to export the Dept/Purchasing library, you would use the command:

swutil EXPORTLIB /dept/purchasing

directory is the directory to export the procedure.

If this is unspecified, the procedure library is exported as a .xfr file to the SWDIR\util directory by default.

2. Choose whether or not to globally reset the extended properties (author, release ID, date created and date amended - see step 6 of Export a Procedure Interactively) for the procedure library and all of its sub-libraries.

If you do this, the new values are applied to each object in the library.

3. For each procedure and sub-procedure in the library, the command displays the same prompts that you would see if you were exporting the procedure individually. See Export a Procedure for more information.

The one difference is that if you chose to globally reset the extended properties (in step 2), you cannot reset the extended properties for individual procedures and sub-procedures. Those prompts are not displayed.

If any use files are referenced, a copy of the file (in the iProcess SWDIR\nodename.n\use directory) is included in the exported file. Also, any VBA projects used in the procedure are exported.
