# Import and Export VAMT Data
# Import and Export Volume Activation Management Tool (VAMT) Data
You can use the Volume Activation Management Tool (VAMT) to import product-activation data from a Computer Information List (.cilx or .cil) file into SQL Server, and to export product-activation data into a .cilx file. A .cilx file is an XML file that stores computer and product-activation data.
You can import data or export data during the following scenarios:
- Import and merge data from previous versions of VAMT.
- Export data to use to perform proxy activations.
- Export data to perform proxy activations.
**Warning**  
Editing a .cilx file using an application other than VAMT can corrupt the .cilx file and is not supported.
Editing a .cilx file through an application other than VAMT can corrupt the .cilx file; and this method is not supported.
