Exports To

You'll see other available data sources in the ODBC Export Wizard, but they aren't compatible with GeoVista. The ODBC Export Wizard displays other ODBCOpen DataBase Connectivity: a standard database access method. The goal of the ODBC standard is to access any data, from any application, regardless of the database management system (DBMS) handling the data. ODBC inserts a database driver between an application a DBMS. If both are ODBC-compliant, the database driver translates the application's data queries into commands the DBMS understands.-compatible data sources it finds on your system.
The ODBC Export Wizard is three steps. You have the option to configure your export in the wizard's three steps, or you can click <Export> at any time to export the data without setting additional options.
