Data Export allows you to export your data, either a table or the result of a query.
You can export in a variety of formats:
Delimited File (also called CSV). You can specify the variable delimiter and other options.
Fixed Format. This format is compatible with the DB2 z/OS Load Utility.
HTML. This allows you to export your data as an html table. This is often a useful way to save the results of a query or to send a set of data to another person.
Insert Statements. Your data will be exported as a series of Insert statements. These can be used as a simple backup of your table, or to load your data into a different table.
Excel. This can be done even if you don't have Excel installed on your system.
Grid File. This exports the data in the format of an AQT saved-grid. You can then view the grid in AQT as if the query were run from AQT.
XML. This exports the data in XML format.
JSON. AQT can export data in this format.
Features
you can export your data directly from a table/query without first displaying it. This allows you to export a large amount of data quickly with minimal memory usage.
LOBs (such as images) can be exported - these will be exported as a series of files linked-to by the main export. See here for an example.
there is an option Always create a new file. This will prevent any previous export files from being overwritten.
if you are exporting a large amount of data, you can specify that the data is written to a number of different files / Excel worksheets. You can spread your data over the different files based on the value of a column.
you can run your exports in unattended batch mode (for instance, for overnight reports).
Export Multiple Tables
This feature allows you to export your data from an entire schema of tables in a single operation.
your export filenames can come from the names of the tables
