InfoObject Export DataSource Create

Hi,

     I need to create Export DataSources on some InfoOjbject Master Data.  I know there is an option "Characteristic is Export DataSource", but would like to create the Export DataSource without changing the InfoObject Settings.  When I right-click the InfoObject to create the Export DataSource it just returns saying it was created, but the Export DataSource is nowhere to be found.

Is this because the InfoObject is not flagged as an InfoProvider?  (I don't think so)

My Goal is to create the InfoObject Export DataSource without having to change the actual infoobject settings and be able to just transport the Export DataSource.  This way I can just send the new Export DataSource Objects and avoid having to resend the InfoObjects in Transport.

Is this possible?

Thanks for the help...
