How to ReUse a Saved Extract Script

You can open a previously-designed script with a different report or text file as follows:

  1. Open the saved extract by double clicking on it in the grid that displays your saved extracts when you first open the Data Extractor.
  2. Select Source > Options from the menu.
  3. Click the File Properties tab.
  4. Click the Text File down arrow and browse to choose the new report file.

Tip: If you modify the extract script to work with the new report/text file, you may want to use the Save As option to save the modified script with a new script filename, rather than overwriting the original script.
