Transferring Q Local Data from One Computer to Another
Caution: Transferring data from one Q Local system to a second Q Local system becomes a bit more complicated if you have set up your own database folder hierarchy. In that case, click here for instructions.
Copying records from the 1st system
Repeat this process for each folder containing records you want to export.
- On the 1st system, select Import and Export from the Q Local File menu, and choose
Export assessment records to a Q Local transfer file (*.trq). Then click Next.
- Select the Export Selected Assessment Records option.
- Select a file name and destination folder for the Transfer File. You may want to name the file the name of the folder the records originally came from to avoid confusion. The path and file names you choose are displayed in the Transfer File field.
- Click the Export button. The assessment records are exported to the destination folder as a transfer file (*.trq).
- Click Cancel to close the Import and Export wizard.
Adding the transfer files to the 2nd system
Repeat this process for each .trq file containing records you want to import.
- On the 2nd system, select Import and Export from the Q Local File menu, and choose
Import assessment records from a Q Local transfer file (*.trq). Then click Next.
- Click the Browse button to navigate to the .trq file that contains the assessment records to be imported.
- Select the Destination Folder for the assessment records by clicking on a folder in the database tree. (This folder name should match the folder name used for these records on your 1st computer.)
- Click the Import button. The assessment records are imported to the destination folder.
- Click Cancel to close the Import/Export wizard.
