Location: Export Menu
Function: Export RossCard Datafiles to standardized
formats. Available formats *.DBF/ASCII
Highlight the desired option and strike <Enter>. You

This feature is new in RossCard 2.00. The thought being

telecommunications for exchange of data between large
collectors. Just beware, in large collections the *.DBF
conversion is slow.
