The Export Function

As already mentioned, the Export Function is available in most windows in which data records are displayed. You can export Logbook views, Statistics and DX Spots.

SWISSLOG always exports the fields which are visible in the window. So to control the fields you want to export you have to add or delete fields in the view.

When you select the Export function, the following dialog is displayed:

In the drop down list at the top you can select the format in which you want to export.
You can either display the result of the export on the screen or store it in a file. Select the corresponding radio button.
The Export Options allows you to control the export in more detail:
- Line Numbers: adds the line number as first field in the exported data
- Selected Lines only: only the records selected in the view are exported
- Export Column Header: exports the name of the columns as first record
- Detail Mode: export each column on a separate line with the column header in front. This works only for some export types.
If you export into HTML Format and additional set of Options are displayed:

Template allows you select one of the color schemes
Show grid lines controls if gridlines are displayed or not
Column Headers Row Bold : if set the headers are displayed in bold
Odd Row Coloring: if set the rows are colored alternately.
