Paul, I do the first two steps a little differently. I enter the search criteria into the search form, but don't run it. Then from search mode with the criteria entered, I go into the reporting piece, following the steps you outlined below. When you do the Report/Export to File, Remedy will execute the search at that time. This runs faster and doesn't use as much memory, since its not loading all the data first. Being in the habit of doing it this way also keeps me from going into the Reporting tool with only one record selected. That's not a big deal, but when you look at the file you exported and only see one row of data, it gives you pause, and then you have to go do it again anyway.
Just thought I'd mention it to save you some time.

"But how can I export/dump the data for local application?" It's not that obvious if you're new to Remedy. What you need to do is: * run a search of a particular form * Select the data you wish to export in the 'Results Pane' * Select 'Tools' * Select 'Reporting' * This then takes you into the reporting tool. * To export the entire file simply select 'New Style' * Click 'Add All' * Select Report/Export To/File Cheers, Paul Clements IT Professional Officer Glasgow City Council Centenary House 100 Morrison Street Glasgow G5 8LN Phone: 0141 418 1332 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: www.glasgow.gov.uk -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Vinson Sent: 16 March 2007 13:48 To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: how to export data? Hi, I'm a newbie of Remedy. I know that I can use remedy user to import/ export the definition. But how can I export/dump the data for local application? ________________________________________________________________________ _______ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are" Support Scotland's Bid to host the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow - visit www.glasgow2014.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer: This message is intended only for use of the addressee.
