FSRM Moving File Screens


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello everyone,

Does anybody know of a way of moving file screens from one server to

another? I know how to move the file screen templates and file groups using

the “filescrn template export & filescrn filegroup export” commands. Our file

server crashed but we were able to bring it back online and were able to

access the c:\ drive via an OS parallel installation and would now like to

copy the file screens to the new file server.

Thanks in advance!

Julio
