.ERX files are ERwin data models. Toad for Oracle cannot handle these. Toad Data Modeler can – if the ERX was generated in an older version of ERwin (I think 7.x and older).

I’m not sure what you mean by ‘import into Toad’, but if you want to view ER Diagram contained in the file, you can do this:
 
Open Toad for Oracle
From the main menu:  Database -> Report -> ER Diagram
Click the “open file” button and open the file.
 
I don’t know if it came from you or not, but there was a support case that came in a few days ago where someone wanted to use the ERX files as a means to create database objects.  Toad for Oracle can only do that if you can connect to the database where the objects exist.  
 
I don’t know if Toad Data Modeler can create a script directly from the .erx file or not.  
 
If you want to copy these objects from one database to the other, you can do it like this with Toad for Oracle:
 
1)      Open Toad for Oracle
2)      Connect to the database where all these objects exist
3)      From the main menu:  Database -> Report -> ER Diagram
4)      Click the “open file” button and open the file.
5)      Click the Export DDL button in the ER Diagram.
6)      Run the script produced by step 5) in the ‘other’ database, either from sql*plus or Toad for Oracle

Hi,
 
I'm new to TOAD. I have not received any training, tutorial, manual, etc. I have access to TOAD Data Modeler, TOAD for Data Analysts and TOAD for Oracle. There is a task for which I very little time to respond and I have been provided with 2 diagrams which are .erx files. Can someone please tell me how to OR if it's possible to import the files into TOAD and which option of TOAD I should be using for this? Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
 
Sincerely,
 
Iris
