/ Import and export of data / Chapter 61. General characteristic of import/export operations / Export

Step “Select file for export and load settings”

At this step it is necessary to specify export file and possibly load export settings file using standard dialog boxes. This procedure is similar to selecting import file (see figure 61-1) with the only difference being that a name of a new file is specified as a rule. If a name of the existing file is selected, the system will ask to confirm the replacement.

In some cases export with adding data in the existing file is possible (for example, when exporting a table in DBF format). In such cases the user should select one of the two variants using radio buttons: Overwrite (replace data in existing file) or Append (add data to the end of the file).
