Database Import Tab

InstallShield 2022 » SQL Scripts View » SQL Connection » SQL Script

Project:The SQL Scripts view is available in the following project types:

Basic MSI
DIM
InstallScript
InstallScript MSI

Tip:The Database Import functionality currently is only available for Microsoft SQL Server. Oracle users should refer to the Oracle Web page on Oracle Database Utilities for information on utilities that may work in conjunction with InstallShield.

You can run the Database Import Wizard from this tab to view and modify your import settings. The wizard will walk you through the process of generating a SQL script that re-creates part or all of an existing Microsoft SQL Database. Once you complete the wizard, you can click the Regenerate button on this tab to refresh your script.

The Regenerate SQL Script at Build option lets you indicate whether the script should be regenerated each time that you build a release. Regenerating a script every time you build your release can slow down the build process.
