There are some command line utilities like DSExport and DSCmdExport. Search for these words and you can find some posts.

In ADN we are having a batch file which will export all the projects from the server.

I don't think that it is possible to do it without client (not sure what is your definition of client?)
What you exactly want to do? Plz Explain.

There is a Server side command line export, but I don't believe it's available back on DS 5.x.

Dear DS_SUPPORT,

We are sorry to inform you of the death of ADN, which passed away quietly in its sleep some number of months after the IBM acquisition. It is survived by the IBM developerWorks forums, but no copies of the contents of The Great File Library of ADN are known to exist, though tomb raiders continue to seek it.

Thank you,

I have a version of this backup batch file on my links below.

Ah... Kim Duke, the Laura Croft of ADN. :wink:

(just kidding!)

Not sure if that was a compliment.

Why Lara Croft Tomb Raider? Why not Indiana Jones? I seem to recall him pulling some relics out of some dusty catacombs. :lol:

Definitely not a compliment. Relics?

Neither positive nor negative, Kim - just a poke in the ribs to see if you are still alive and kicking. :wink:

Maybe not a "relic" script, just a term for the site's demise and everything on it. Maybe a better term would be "lost treasures of sunken Atlantis". :lol: But then we can't call you Doctor Jones.

I guess the last poke was mine. :wink:

Wrong shape, surely? Or is Laura Croft someone different from Lara Croft?

Is there a Lara Bush? (That's a frightening thought!)

Well, this thread has certainly taken a hard turn off into the bushes.

And 'wrong shape'? Just a extra 'u' thrown in by accident... sorry about that, Chief.
