Unloading All Report Data from the Configuration Application

Use the Unload All command from the View menu to unload all view, folder, user, system option, report definitions, and template definitions to a flat file (for example, when upgrading from one JADE release to another JADE release in which the class number range has changed).

The Unload All command and its corresponding Load All command provide a transfer and backup utility for all the report writer data created by using the JADE Report Writer Designer and the JADE Report Writer Configuration applications.

To extract all report writer data to a flat file

Select the Unload All command from the View menu. The Unload All dialog, shown in the following image, is then displayed.
In the File Name text box, enter the name and location of the file to which you want to extract all of your report writer data. You should define a file with the default .rwa suffix. If you are unsure of your file name or location, click the Browse button. The common File dialog is then displayed, to enable you to select the appropriate file location.
Click the Unload button, to begin the unload process and extract all report writer data to your specified file. Alternatively, click the Close button to return to the JADE Report Writer Configuration application window.
