Title
Multi-Table Export to Text File
Post
I am unable to find a way to export the contents of all fields in all tables into a single text tile.
You have a primary Table named CITY. Related to it are the Tables named HOTELS and RESTAURANTS. What you want is to export a text file something like this:
Boston
Hotel 1
Hotel 2
Hotel 3
Restaurant 1
Restaurant 2
Chicago
Hotel 1
Hotel 2
Restaurant 1
Restaurant 2
Restaurant 3
However, any kind of export gives you only the first hotel and the first restaurant. A Report does the same. Printing a list of portals to PDF doesn’t work. Any ideas short of a long string of scripts and export tables?
You were the one who said " A Report does the same. " I was pointing out that this was definitely not the case for reports.
But an export like you want may indeed be possible without use of a plug in. But again, this depends, on your data model.
I'm pretty sure that you can get this result without a plug in, but those that allow you to append data to an existing file may make for a simpler solution.
