File Menu - Exports

Use this command to copy information from Hansa into a text file on your hard disk. This data is then available for use in other programs, such as word processors, spreadsheets, database programs etc. Selecting the command is equivalent to pressing the [Exports] button in the Master Control panel.

When you select this command, the 'Exports' list window is opened, where you can choose the information to be exported by double-clicking. The options available in the 'Exports' list window vary according to the active module.

One reason to use the 'Exports' function is to back up your Hansa database. For full details of how to do this, please refer to the Backing Up page. For security reasons, the 'Company Text Backup' and 'Database Text Backup' exports do not produce text files as mentioned above but encrypted files that can only be read by another copy of Hansa.

Note that all Hansa reports can also be printed to disk as text files. This, in combination with the 'Exports' function, makes it very easy to retrieve information from Hansa for use with other applications.
