Exporting Data from AssetWorX

You can export data from an AssetWorX database, asset tree, or equipment class node to a .CSV (comma-separated values) file. The file can then be imported into AssetWorX for use elsewhere. Note that you can export from any equipment node in the asset tree, or from any equipment class. The name you assign to the .CSV file that is created should identify the exported content.
