NOTE:
Unless you include the /S parameter, the Export/Import Utility dialog box appears, displaying the values specified by the command line parameters.
All tables in the database are included by default.
Unless you specify otherwise, an ini file is the default format, empty tables are not included in the data file, and a detail file is not created.

|
/I filename |
Import the specified data file. The file is imported from the current directory unless you specify a different drive and directory. A file extension is not needed. You can include either the /D or the /I command line parameter. If you include both, only the /D command line parameter is used. |

For example, the following command exports the current database. It shows no user interface and creates a file called icdata.ini.
expimp32 /S /D c:\icdata.ini
The following command imports content from the icdata.ini file into the current database
expimp32 /S /I c:\mypath\icdata.ini
