Extracting entity hierarchy without constraints

Hi!

Is there a way to extract the entity structure without constraints? In the current entity structure, every entity has a different UD1 constraint, but I need this to be set to Root for all entities when loading it in the other application.

I know in Notepad++ you can use find/replace to modify this, but because every entity has a different UD1 constraint, it is still quite a manual process. Wondering if there is a more efficient way.

Thanks in advance!

    Hi

    I'm unaware of any built-in feature to do, but Notepad++ has regular expressions for search and replace, and with it, it should be easy to do it in one run. Especially if you have to do it frequently, it might be worth investing some time in it.

    VB.net also supports regular expression, you might be able to write a business rule to do it for you.

    I hope this helps and cheers

    Cheers
