This is probably a basic question but I never did it before. I am trying out a version of 8.1. I want to export some modules (or a folder containing a few modules) to a folder created in 8.1. I heard about the .dma files but I can not get much information on them. What option should I select at the 7.1 Export menu? How best I can do it?
Thanks for any suggestions

You want to Archive not export.

From the database explorer select the project or module that you want and then select File -> Archive

Either archive a module to get just that module (no links), or archive a project to get everything contained in that project (think of the database as paper documents linked with string, you are cutting around the project boundary - you get all the links that are wholly within the project and none of those that stray outside even if only the link module is outside)

A module archive is a .dma, a project archive is a .dpa

To get that into the new database you want File->Restore

Thanks for the reply. I realized that I did not have the permission to archive and hence I am not able to see the option in the menu. I got the permission and I can do it now.
