Someone in this thread asked why I'm doing this export in the first place: I want to import it back into zope but into a separate storage file so that I can back it up separately from the main storage. Someone suggested that I might be able to do it by copying the entire Data.fs file to the new strage
location, restarting zope and then deleting the bits that I don't want
instead of exporting then importing.

I tried this but it didn't work unfortunately. The new mount point just appeared in the zmi root with a broken icon and gave me an 'unsubscriptable
object type error when I tried to access it.

Good that I asked. That's not a valid reason to do import/export.

As the other person mentioned, you should copy the database and do it that way. If you run into problems that way you need to post useful error messages (meaning, something better than "didn't work") and paste the full error traceback and all symptoms.
