Within the Export File Setup window, you
are given the opportunity to name your file and determine the format
of your exported file. In the Export File Name
field, name your file and then select the format that you want your
file to be exported into. ASCII files are text files and CSV
files are spreadsheet files, both of which are supported by most
file applications. You can also select how much of the
information from the Search Results window that you want to include
in your export exercise. By default, the Selection
option is selected, which will only export those objects that you selected in
the Search Results window when choosing the Export function.
However, should you decide to now export all the information that
resulted from your search, you can select the All option.
Selecting the Items option will export only those objects in your
search results that are considered items. When selecting the
Item option, you will notice that the From and
To fields now become
available for selection as well. In these fields you can
narrow the amount of item data that is exported by specifying the range
of data that you want exported. For example, you could specify
records 10 to 50 as the objects that you want exported. Once you have completed your
criteria, click the Next button to proceed with the export exercise.
The Export Options Setup window appears.

represented as Name | Address | Phone Number | and so forth.
You can also choose to remove blanks that may exist between the data
(both leading and trailing), and choose where the delimiter should
appear in the data (before or after). Select your options and
click the Next button to proceed. The
Export Column Setup window appears.

The Export Column Setup window allows you
to custom select the columns of data that you want included in your
export file. Select or deselect the options that best define
your reporting needs, and click the Next button to
proceed. The Export File Link window appears.

The Export File Link window contains the
link to your exported file, and by clicking the link, you have the
option of opening your file or saving it directly to your computer.
To review your file, click the link and choose the Open
option in the File Download window. The file
opens and the data is displayed.
