Exporting Grid Data

The content of a grid can be exported in a variety of formats, useful for reports or record keeping.

 

The content of the grid will be exported as it appears, so columns can be added, removed, and reorganized, and all data can be filtered and sorted.  The export will include the information as it is displayed.  If there is more than one page of data, the data from all pages will be included.

 

Once the data is ready for export, click the Export Grid button  in the bottom right of the grid to view the export options.
