I am getting into difficulties trying to redit dataset configuration
files using MartEditor...
 
changes that i make don't seem to get 'Export'-ed back to the database -
(though they do hang around in the Marteditor memory)
 
 
eg 
 
if i have a dataset called maps...
 
if i connect to the dataset witwith MartEditor and edit the config of
filters on maps..
 
'Export' does not write changes back to the database config tables
 
if I 'SaveAll' the edits do get saved to a file e.g maps.template.xml...
 
I can then copy and rename this to maps.xml  (changing a couple of
attributes in the file)
 
and then overwrite the changes to the database using 'Upload All' - this
then works
 
 
however this is very laborious and error prone - are their known issues
with this process, or any work arounds ? - 
 
the logic of the two files maps.xml and maps.template.xml is opaque to
me
 
cheers
