Data Export Resource File

Describes the Data Export resource ﬁle and how to conﬁgure it before and after installing Data

Export.

The Data Export resource ﬁle, SDE, consists of parameters that deﬁne the

appearance and operational features of Data Export running in the X Window

System environment. You can customize default settings to meet your

particular requirements during installation (see Conﬁguring Default Resource

File Parameters During Installation on Page D-7) or after installation with a

text editor (such as vi).
