Export from MDB¶

In version 2.15.37.134 a new database export function is implemented. It is based on the use of export presets and file format templates.
Before the database elements could be exported using new functionality, at least one file format template and at least one export preset should be created.

To do so:
1. Open context menu on the Database panel.
2. Select "Export" sub menu, then - "Setup" option. This will open Presets Editor.

3. Press "New" button under "Export preset" field. Type in desired name and press enter key to apply. A new preset will be created.
4. Press "New" button under "File format template" field. A template editor will open.

5. After template was created and saved, select it in the "File format template" list.
6. Optionally you may enter a path to the directory where reports will be saved by default and file name mask, which may consist of custom string and date/time format characters, for example:

NEW_PRESET_%Y-%m-%d.txt

7. Optionally a check could be put at the "Ask user for file name every time" option, int this case the program will ask user to type in a target file name before exporting; otherwise it will determine a file name automatically.
8. Press OK to save current preset and close preset editor.

After preset was created it can be used to make an actual export.
9. Select desired database elements or categories.
10. Open context menu on Database panel again.
11. Select "Export" sub menu. Below "Setup" option you will see a list of existing presets.
12. Choose one of the presets to perform an export.
