Chapter 8 Extended Model Definitions Reference Guide

Exporting an extended model definition

You can export an extended model definition created in a model if you wish to share this definition with other models. Export allows you to create a file with the .XEM extension that will be stored into your extended model definition library directory. When you export an extended model definition, the specific extended model definition remains embedded in the model.

An extended model definition created in a model does not appear in the List of Extended Model Definitions. Whereas an exported extended model definition appears in the List of Extended Model Definitions.

To export an extended model definition into a model:

1. Select Model→Extended Model Definitions.
   
   The List of Extended Model Definitions appears.
2. Select an extended model definition in the list.
3. Click the Export an Extended Model Definition tool.
   
   A standard Save As dialog box appears.
4. Type a name and select a directory for the extended model definition.
5. Click Save.
   
   The extended model definition is saved in a library directory where it can be shared with other models.
