ENVIRONMENT USER DEFINED VARIBLES

Post by sendmk »

Hi

Is there any way to export the User Defined ENV Variables from One Project to other Project without simply typing them Again.

Regards
Srireddy.

If they were created using the Administrator client, copy the relevant lines from the DSParams file in one project and insert them into the DSParams file in the other project. (You can copy the entire DSParams file if you want to maintain synchronization.)

Can the DSParams file be copied in it's entirety from one project to another without hurting messing anything up?

It will hurt if you overwrite the existing DSParam file, if that is under use. :wink:

Test it out. make a copy of your DSParams file so that the original one is safe, copy the entire file and see if everything is ok. Test out a few jobs.
