Dave is there a way to pull the data from the disc libary? I want to export the data to another database. Can I export it to a file?

Todd,

Absolutely...you could do it a couple of different ways depending upon how want the data.

The first and easiest would be to just pull a "Discs" report off of the report menu. Leave all the boxes blank to retrieve everything. After the report is displayed, go to File->Export and export in the format of your choice (Excel, CSV, SQL, etc).

You can also retrieve the raw data using the SQL Report option. The data for the discs is contained within a couple of tables...discs and tracks. You could pull the info from each table and save as SQL for import into another database. Open the "SQL Query" window under the reports menu and enter "select * from discs" without the quotes. Hit "Do-it" and then export it as SQL from the File menu. Then enter "select * from tracks" and do the same.

Let me know if you need any help,

Dave.
