You can export breakpoints from a Visual Studio project to an XML file by using the Breakpoints window. Later, you can import the breakpoints from the XML file back into Visual Studio.XML files enable easy sharing of breakpoints between projects and developments. You can import and export breakpoints to transfer them between projects or to e-mail an XML file to a coworker. You can also make bulk changes to breakpoints by using a text editor to modify the XML file.

To export all breakpoints that match the current search criteria

  1. In the Breakpoints window toolbar, click the Export all breakpoints matching current search criteria icon.

  2. In the Save As dialog box, type a name in the File name box.
