8.1 Database Selection

When launched for the first time, DBExport launches the database selection
dialog which allows you to select the database from which to export data. The
database selection dialog is identical to the one used in LNDB. If you select
Remember and Automatically Login, the login information is only
remembered for DBExport.

You can change the database selection at any time using DBExport's File |
Select Database menu item or by double-clicking on the database connection
status panel at the bottom of the DBExport window.

8.2 Export From

Database Table

The Database Table combo box is filled with all tables from the selected
database. Select the table from which the data should be exported.

Columns

This list box contains a list of all data columns that will be exported. By
default, the list contains all columns in the selected database table. Press the
Select Columns button to select a custom set of columns. (See Section 8.6
Select Columns.)

Date – Time Range

Start Date/Time and End Date/ Time

These fields are used to determine what data will be exported to the
file. The Start and End controls can be set by the user. When a new
database table is selected the Start time is set to the timestamp of the
oldest record for the table in the database. The End time is set to the
newest. The Lock Current Start - End Times checkbox can be used
to prevent this.

Lock Current Start – End Times

When this check box is selected, the Start and End date/time controls
will not be updated when a new table is selected. They will keep their
current settings.

Include End Record

When this check box is selected, a record that matches the date and
time specified in the End control will be included in the data file. If
the check box is not selected, that record will not be included. To
export the entire set of data this control should be checked.
