    @tcheware.. 

    First.. go into admin mode (the wrench in the upper right).. then select tables.. then pick your table .. and pick your extract format.. 

     

    If you have attachments on the rows within the table.. those will NOT be automatically exported..   Using this approach. you will have to go table by table for the "whole database".. 

    export

    Hi Mconneen!

    Not sure if this is what @tcheware ask:

    I also have a similiar question. If you export a CSV for the current Table, Ninox will export only those VISIBLE fields/columns for the current VIEW.

    I would like to export (as CSV) ALL FIELDS, not only the visible one, for the current table.

    At least that. AFAIK, you need to create an extra “view” for the current table with all fields, in order to export as CSV the whole table. Maybe I'm wrong.

    And what would be even better: export all fields for all tables in the current database…! :-D

    This would save so much time setting up views containing every field and keeping that view updated every time a new field is added. We just need an 'Export all fields' option

    I am dumbfounded that an "export all fields" option does not exist. Such a simple implementation with many usecases that is missing turns what could be an amazing database software into an incredibly mediocre one.
