Export only selected rows in v16

George Chandeep Corea

Is it possible to export only selected data in gms?

I see there is EXPORT_LAYER but how do I tell it to do the following for example?

Select all rows where contour_type=major export selection to %FNAME_WO_EXT%_5m.tab
Select all rows where contour_type!=minor export selection to %FNAME_WO_EXT%_1m.tabThis will be in

EXPORT_VECTOR FILENAME="%FNAME_WO_EXT%.tab" TYPE=Mapinfo INC_LAYER_ATTR=NO INC_ELEV_ATTR=YES

You  can try something like this:

EDIT_VECTOR COPY_TO_NEW_LAYER=YES NEW_LAYER_NAME="Major" \
    COMPARE_STR="CONTOUR_TYPE=major"
EXPORT_VECTOR FILENAME="<filename>" TYPE=MAPINFO EXPORT_LAYER="Major"
UNLOAD_LAYER FILENAME="Major"

EDIT_VECTOR COPY_TO_NEW_LAYER=YES NEW_LAYER_NAME="Minor" \
    COMPARE_STR="CONTOUR_TYPE=minor"
EXPORT_VECTOR FILENAME="<filename>" TYPE=MAPINFO EXPORT_LAYER="Minor"
UNLOAD_LAYER FILENAME="Minor"
