What is a DM2 file?

DM2 files mostly belong to DBDesigner.

The DM2 file is a database diagram file made by DBDesigner. It stores the layout of a data model, which shows tables, keys, and relationships in a structured plan.
Using this file, designers create and review database schemas before actual database implementation.

Key Details provided by FilExt.com:

Purpose: To record and display the design of database structures.

Usage: Open and edit exclusively using DBDesigner.

Functionality: It holds visual representations of tables, primary/foreign keys, and their relations in a proprietary format.

Viewing: Not intended for text editors; the proper tool is required to view and modify it.
