Template Location

By default, the templates are installed to a subdirectory of the Application Data directory of your machine, typically for a 32-bit version: C:\ProgramData\erwin\Data Modeler\9.8\Templates.

Note: If you do not use the All Users setting during product installation and enter a specific user instead, then the All Users subdirectory is the user name you entered.

The forward engineering template files have an extension of .fet and are named to correspond with the DBMS to which they apply. For example, the default template file for Oracle is Oracle.fet.

Note: You will find other files in the Templates directory that have different extensions. These are templates for other purposes and are not covered by this document.

If you want to restore the default template files, the install program places read-only copies of the files in the BackupFiles\Templates subdirectory where this product is installed.
