MFImportConn command

Enables you to import connection settings previously exported from the ADO.NET Connection Editor.

Important: You must run this command from a 32-bit or a 64-bit Enterprise Developer command prompt. See To start an Enterprise Developer command prompt for instructions.

Syntax

{MFImportConn32_v2 | MFImportConn32_v4 | MFImportConn64_v2 | MFImportConn64_v4} path:\exportedXMLfile {System | User} {32BIT | 64BIT}

Important: Use the executable that fits the type of connection you're importing to. In the executable file names, 32 represents 32-bit, 64 represents 64-bit, v2 (deprecated) represents .NET Framework versions 2.0, 3.0, or 3.5, and v4 represents .NET Framework 4.0.

Support for .NET Framework versions 3.0 and 3.5, and for the CLR v2 has been deprecated. The option 2 of the ILCLR directive has also been deprecated.
