- Since it may be a challenge to share data…with users outside of your organization…if all your data is stored within a database,…you can capture that data easily…using the SDF export tool.…Let's try that now.…First we'll connect into SQL Server Data,…Connect to Data,…SQL Server,…Login,…pick your Data store, NANAIMO,…copy that to the Connection name,…click Connect,…and we'll add the PIPE.…
Close the Data Connect window.…Well, let's change the color.…So I'll go into PIPE,…change the style…just so that we can see it.…We'll make it blue.…There we are.…Now we have…all this blue PIPE coming from SQL Server.…Now, how would we share this…with people outside of our organization?…There's a handy tool where we can not only…give people the graphics,…but we can also give them the attributes…that go with this PIPE.…So simply right-click over PIPE…and say Export Layer to SDF.…
We'll just put it on our Desktop,…call it PIPE.SDF, hit Save.…Now what we can do…is start a brand new drawing.…And we'll drag and drop…PIPE SDF into our drawing to make sure…
