title: Backing up/sharing Snippets in Oracle SQL Developer
body: <p>I am performing an evaluation of Oracle SQL Developer (4.0.2) in an attempt to convince my Team to Switch to this tool from TOAD.  We use code templates extensively in our Team, as our source columns and tables typically have Long and complex names.</p>
  
  <p>I found on this Website an article which explains that the snippets in SQL Developer are stored in a file under the AppData Directory (UserSnippets.xml).</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/971792/is-there-an-easy-way-to-backup-oracle-sql-developers-user-snippets">Is there an easy way to backup Oracle SQL Developer&#39;s User Snippets?</a></p>
  
  <p>Assuming that we do not have Access to our AppData Directory, is there a way using the SQL Developer interface to 
  1.)  write my custom Snippets in a file to a Location of my choice, and
  2.)  is there a way my colleagues can Import the Contents of that same file also using their SQL Developer on their Desktops?</p>
