Baslogue ®

TRANSFERRING DATA BETWEEN BASLOGUE® EDITIONS

The Standalone Edition of Baslogue® uses the same Backup File format as the Data Import/Export feature within the Database Edition of Baslogue®.  This allows data to be easily transferred between the two editions.  This means, for example, that you can evaluate Baslogue® using the Standalone Edition, and then later transfer your data to the Database Edition.  It also means that you can easily transfer data between different databases - for example, transfer from a Microsoft SQL Server database to a MySQL database, or vice versa.


Transferring Data from the Standalone Edition to the Database Edition

Launch the Standalone Edition.  Select the Setup | Backup and Restore menu option:
 


Now specify a File Name for the Backup File that you will create:
 
 



Click "Create Backup" to create the backup file.

Now install the Database Edition of Baslogue® if you have not already done so.  Complete the first-time setup as prompted on a new database.  When you get to the main screen select the Import Data from File option.  Select the backup file you created above.
 
  



Click "Next >" to import the data, and you are finished - the data has been transferred.



Transferring Data from the Database Edition to the Standalone Edition

Launch the Baslogue® Administration Wizard.  From the main screen, select the Export Data to File option.  Specify a Backup File Name that you would like to create.
 


Click "Next >" to export the data.

Now install the Standalone Edition of Baslogue® if you have not already done so.  Complete the first-time setup as prompted. 

Select the Setup | Backup and Restore menu option:
 


Now select the backup file you created above in the "Restore from Backup File" section:
 
 



 
Click "Restore from Backup" to restore the backup file.  Then close the dialog and restart the application as prompted and you are finished.
