What is Exporting Search Results
 Exports all the information in the contents
window (the right-window), i.e. filenames, sizes, dates etc.
The data is exported in the same order and in the same format as the columns
on screen and
in the same order.
The the entries are written to an ASCII text file
either tab or comma delimited.
The contents of any tab can be exported no
matter if it is the result of a search or a normal explore view.
Exporting a Directory Tree
To export a tree (more
than one folder) first create a Virtual Folder by searching, e.g.
use the Find | Files... command from the main menu.
Then export the results of the search as described below.
Exporting the file information
 Exporting is a simple process of selecting the
entries to be exported, specify a few simple options and then let
FileBoss do the work.
- Select
the files and folders you want to export in the List window
(right-hand window)
- Use
the File | Export...
command from the main menu.
- Enter
an output filename, select the appropriate
options and click OK
Export Options
- Automatically Overwrite
Existing Output
when checked FileBoss will not prompt you
for a new name if the it already exists.
- Only
Include Selected Entries
when checked only the selected entries
will be written to the file. Otherwise all files in
the contents view will be exported.
- Include
Path and Extension with File Names
when checked the Name field in
the report will include the full path and the
extension. This overrides the setting for the Name column in the Contents field. If it is not
checked just the name of each file, without the
path, will be written to the report
- Enclose
each Field in Double Quotation Marks
when checked each field (column) will be
enclosed in quotation marks.
- Tab
Delimited or Comma Delimited
determines whether tabs or commas will be
separate each of the fields in the report.
