Depending on your Search Target, then search result may be exported in two different formats:

• XML Export – exports to a file in XML format.
• Text Export – exports to a file in CSV format. This comma separated file may be opened with e.g. Excel.

The file format CSV has its limitations. As example is non-Latin characters are not supported.

When you open the CSV file in Excel, Excel will automatically interpret data like 1-10 as 10-Jan. Therefore check carefully the result in Excel before sharing the export result with others. A word around for this Excel behaviour is described here.

To Export data from the selected row(s) to a file:

1. Select the row(s) that you would like to export to a file. If you do not select any row(s) all rows will be exported.
2. Click the button.
3. The Export Options window displays.

4. If you select the Text Export option, you can select the columns that you would like to include in the export file.

4. Click the OK button.
5. Specify the directory to which you would like to export the file and the name of the file.
6. Click the Save button.
