File Extension | SQL |
Full Name | Structured Query Language Data SQL Format |
File with an .SQL extension contains Structured Query Language code in form of text. In such files, commands utilised by a program supporting relational SQL database can be stored (For instance: Microsoft Access, MySQL or FileMaker in form of script for purpose of modifying and downloading a given database).
File Extension | MWB |
Full Name | MySQL Workbench Database Models |
File with a .MWB extension contains an EER model of a relational database – its project which defines charts, display and procedures, and also permissions and other elements of a database. Such files are used to save projects of databases and to generate on their basis a real database.
File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "SQL") to another (referred to as "MWB"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, SQL file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format SQL to format MWB becomes essential.
So, how can we perform SQL to MWB file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format SQL and transforming it into format MWB. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of SQL to MWB converters.
If you have already downloaded one of the converters and installed it on your computer, you can proceed to the appropriate conversion process of SQL to MWB. Handling all the programs is usually very intuitive and is based on the same pattern of conduct. We will briefly discuss a few steps that you always need to go through while changing the format of the SQL file:
File extensions are not normally displayed to users. To change this, go to Control Panel, select Appearance and Personalization and Folder Options. Next, select the View and find the option "Hide extensions for known file types". The option should be deselected (cleared) and confirmed with OK.
