Description
Runs an Export operation
Discussion
The EXPORT.RUN() method exports data using a previously defined export operation. Note : If you specify an optional filter argument, the filter is applied in addition to any filter that may have been defined as Part of the Operation. (You can check to see if a filter is defined as Part of an Operation by editing the saved operation, and selecting the "Select records" menu item.) If the Silent flag is set to .T., then Alpha Five does not display any confirmation dialog boxes before running the operation.
Example
The following example runs the saved Customer Export operation.
export.run("Customer Export", "Lastname > 'M'", "Firstname", .t., .f.)Limitations
Desktop applications only.
