Query Backup and Restore Tool (QryEdit.exe)

Use the Query Backup and Restore tool to back up and restore SMS queries. This tool will only back up user-defined queries, not SMS 2.0 default queries. When you restore queries, the queries you restore are added as new queries to the SMS Administrator console. You can also use this tool to export a query from one site and import it to another site.

Using Query Backup and Restore
