Hi friends
in our front end app (c#) we've utility to import and export data from/to different users.
when exporting ,what we do is just create ".sql" file with "insert " statements we need. all works fine.

out issue is,when importing users must import it from server(where sql server is) bcoz as we know by default it looks at local folders.so users cant import from their local workstations.
am just wondering how you normally handle such scenarios ?
Thanks for ur help.

Cheers
