Description

The ExportConfig command enables you to change options that STK uses when exporting a report. The export config options are stored with the application, in your _Default.ap file.

You can set export config options for the application and also for individual Connect connections. When a connection is opened, STK sets its initial export option values. Then, using the ExportConfig Connection command, you can change settings for this connection. These settings are only valid while the connection is open. STK does not save these settings. You can separately set export config options for the application.

When you set export config options for the Connection, STK uses them for reports that are exported using the Report_RM command and the ReportCreate command with the Type Export option. When you set export config options for the application, STK uses them for reports that are exported from the STK GUI.

Use the ExportConfig_R command to return the export options values.

{ExportOption}<Parameters>Description
SaveToConnectN/AThis option will use the values currently set for the application and will reset the export config values for the current connection.
WriteApDefaultN/AThis option will save the current application export config values to your _Default.ap file.
Connection{OptionValuePairs}Use the Connection keyword to set export config values only for the current connection. STK will use these values for reports created via the Report_RM or Report Export commands.
App{OptionValuePairs}Use the App keyword to set the export config values only for the application. STK will use these values for reports exported from the STK GUI.
All{OptionValuePairs}Use the All keyword to set values for both the application and the current Connection.

The following table describes the {OptionValuePairs} you can use to set the export options. You can include one or more of these options on a command line.

{Option}<Value>Description

Headers{One | All | None}Define which headers are included in an exported report. The One keyword specifies that only the first header will be included in the report. The All keyword specifies that all headers will be included in the report. The None keyword specifies that no headers will be included.

All export options will be applied:

  • to a report created via the ReportCreate command with the Type Export option
  • for a report created using the STK GUI, right click in the report body and select Export - To Excel or CSV Format.

Only these export options — Delimiter, HeaderInQuotes, Quotes, and UseCommaForDecPnt — will be applied:

  • to a report created via the ReportCreate command with the Type Export and Summary options
