Export Form Data
Sue,
Thanks for all your help on this issue... I have created a task form that contains a variety of custom fields. I am able to export some of the custom fields (i.e. text entry, date) without issue, however I have some check boxes that do not copy over? The properties of the checkbox fields are set as: Type: Yes/No Format: Icon Property to use: Value There is no initial value or validation done on these check boxes. Thanks again for any help you can provide...

The problem is that when I do this, I only get the field from the task and none of the custom fields I created. I really just want the fields I created. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks Harv

Export Form Data
I've added all the custom fields to the view and tried both exporting
(File/Import and Export/Export to a file/Microsoft Excel) and dragging and dropping to Excel.

Export Form Data
Custom fields can't be exported with the Import and Export wizard. Try displaying the desired fields in a table view, using text for the Yes/No fields instead of icons, and copying, selecting all, then copying and pasting to Excel. If that doesn't give you the desired results, you'll need to write your own export code or use a third-party tool. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/customimport.htm
