Un-Check any fields that you want left out. |
(System default is last name or your results order.) How to export limited sets of data To the left are all of the fields of information stored about your contacts. Un-check any fields that you do not want included in this export of your current contacts data. Make sure your preferred delimiter (what seperates fields) is chosen, and whether you want the first line of the file to be the field names or not. You may want to choose the comma seperated, quote encapsulated delimiter if your data may have tabs in it. After you click the export button, you will be shown a link that points to the file that was created. Right click on the file, choose 'Save Target As', and select the location on your local system where you would like to save this file. Then, be sure to click the delete file link once it is downloaded to your local system. From there you should be able to open that file with a spreadsheet application like Excel, or import that data into other applications. Depending upon the extent of your data, and whether or not you would like the history included, please be patient. This may take a moment. This system creates a text file (.txt) for tab delimited exports, and a comma seperated values file (.csv) for comma seperated, quote encapsulated exports. Contact Pro assumes that by running this functionality and saving these files, you know what to do with them once you have them saved to your local system. If you have any difficulties with this process, please contact us. Contact Pro does not make any gaurantees as to the security of your data if you run this export functionality because in order to make the export file available to you, it must be saved in a publicly accessible location on the server. It is your responsibility to delete the export file once you have downloaded it to your local system. |
