1. Export Table window will pop up after the completion of step 1. Select the location/folder as well as name where you would like to save your data file as shown in Figure 6-4 with label 1 by clicking the <Browse..> Button.

2. As depicted with label 2 (see the zoomed version Figure 6-5), this drop down combo box contains all the different data formats available to you for export operation. In the example, we are exporting the data into MS Excel format.

3. Give the file a name. This will be the file containing the exported data.

4. As shown in Figure 6-5, click the <Export data with formatting and layout> check box.

5. Finally click the <OK> button.

After this you will see your computer doing something for a while and finally a message window will pop up informing you that the data has been exported successfully. Depending on the quantity of data that you are exporting out of MS Access, you may have to wait a while. But in our case it’s not going to be that much as the table we are exporting is really small.

Once you have the data exported into MS Excel format, you can easily view it in MS Excel application.
