TITLE           Export NDS List

OCCURRENCE      ARB_NT/File/Export/Export fields (to calc-sheet using NDS)

DESCRIPTION     Writes 'field' (see LINK{glossary.hlp}) entries and other
                information specified using the 'NDS' tool (see LINK{props_nds.hlp})
                of 'marked species' (see LINK{glossary.hlp}) to an ascii file.

                Choose the 'Export NDS List' option from the 'File' menu to
                display the 'EXPORT NDS OF MARKED SPECIES' window.

                Select a file name from the 'Directories and Files' subwindow or
                type it to the 'File Name' subwindow.

                If you want to use the exported data in an office calc-sheet,
                the recommended mode for 'Column output' is 'TAB separated' or 'Comma separated'.

                For best human readability choose 'Space padded' which uses fixed width columns.

NOTES           The suffix shown or typed in the 'Suffix' subwindow is used as a
                filter for the displayed file names and is automatically
                appended to the file name in the 'File Name' subwindow.

        The reverse dataflow is available via LINK{agde_import_calc.hlp}.

EXAMPLES        None

WARNINGS        Do not choose 'Space padded' if you plan to use the nds-output as input for
                other scripts (like markSpecies.pl).
                The nds-output has trailing spaces (as produced e.g. by libre-office) that may
                easily lead to somewhat unexpected problems during subsequent processing.

BUGS            No bugs known
