DESCRIPTION
|
|
mdb-export is a utility program distributed with MDB Tools.
|
|
|
|
It produces a CSV (comma separated value) output for the given table. Such output is suitable for importation into databases or spreadsheets.
|
|
|
|
Used with --insert, it outputs SQL specific to backend dialect, including some constraints like NOT NULL and foreign keys.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-H, --no-header Suppress header row.
|
|
-d, --delimiter delim Specify an alternative column delimiter. Default is , (comma).
|
|
-R, --row-delimiter delim Specify a row delimiter. Default is \\n (ASCII value 10).
|
|
-Q, --no-quote Don't wrap text-like fields (text, memo, date) in quotes. If not specified text fiels will be surrounded by " (double quote) characters.
|

|
|
-I, --insert backend INSERT statements (instead of CSV). You must specify which SQL backend dialect to use. Allowed values are: access, sybase, oracle, postgres, mysql and sqlite.

Most of the formatting options actually also works with --insert.
