Dear reader, I need help.

I need help exporting data with header information (dbf, csv, tab etc.)

Or a stand alone program that could convert fmp file to some other format?

I am new at FMP and already need to export data to Access.

94000 records are taking hours exporting to csv file, is that normal?

csv and tab files don't have header or column names!

Seems like dbf file has the header information but system locks up with a large file or is it's just taking too long!

If you need a field name header in your export file, you can use the Merge format.

As for why it is taking so long to export, there are a number of factors. If there are unstored calculated or summary fields being exported, these have to calculate for each record and may slow things down considerably.
