1-3

The Data Export Process

Data Export Script (dtxscript) File

You will set environment variables for SAS and SQL exports in the

dtxscript ﬁle.

Resource File

Data Export reads the Data Export resource ﬁle, SDE, at startup to determine

and establish various Data Export operational settings, such as ﬁeld values,

color schemes, and text fonts in the Data Export window and windows that

can be derived from it. You can either accept the default settings in the

resource ﬁle or change them to customize Data Export. You can also override

default settings in the Data Export window for any speciﬁc deﬁnition ﬁle open

in the window using conﬁguration procedures provided or permitted by the

window (see Chapter 3).

The Data Export Process

You will perform the following tasks to perform a data export with the Data

Export application:

• Invoke Data Export

See Chapter 2.

• Create and save a deﬁnition ﬁle

See Chapter 3.

• Execute Data Export immediately or schedule an export

See Chapter 4.

When Data Export has completed an export, the information for each data

type speciﬁed in the deﬁnition ﬁle is stored in a separate ASCII ﬁle, SAS data

set, or SQL table. As long as you are working with the same SPECTRUM

database, you can save the deﬁnition ﬁle and reuse it as often as you wish.
