Hi Paul,
What version of Ultrix and dashboard are you using. I can run some tests.
Also if you can upgrade your system to Version 6.0 or later you will find that we have implimented an Excel impurt export function for both the destinations and sources tab.
If you send an Email to support they can help you out with the upgrade.

Hi Joe,
I have not had success with the copy paste from the Ultrix Database to Excel.
I'm in Destinations, Select All, all cells turn blue, Control C, but nothing is copied to the clipboard to paste in Excel.
"Copy" in the Edit menu in dashboard is grayed out so I can't copy that way.
What am I missing or doing wrong?
Thanks
Paul W

Hi Danny,
I'm assuming you are referring to database configuration files?
The process starts in Dashboard by accessing the "System Status" page underneath the Ultrix entry in the Tree.
Navigate to the "Transfer" tab towards the upper right of the screen. Select which type of file you want to back up, select the file you want to back up, then browse to the location you want to store the file, and click "Apply." This same screen is where you can import files that have been previously backed up.
You can also copy and paste your source and destination tables into Excel if you'd like. Go to either of those tabs(accessed in the Database folder in the Tree) and click CTRL+A to select every cell in the table and then paste that into a spreadsheet. Please note, if you intend to copy this information back into the Database, Dashboard doesn't know how to handle empty cells, so it will shift over data from the cell to the right, which can cause major issues with your database. So a good rule of thumb is to either A) fill in all empty cells with a character of your choice, or B) selective paste back data into the appropriate fields to make sure everything goes back where it is supposed to.
Hope that helps!
Joe
