Is there a way to export the reports that ViArt has in their reports section? I want to export the keyword lists to a CSV, and it seems the only way I might be able to do this is by clicking "Show More" until the entire list shows up, which is painfully slow. Then I'll have to manually throw this into an Excel file, and sort it from there. If I could just export this list to a CSV, it would make life much easier.
Thanks for your help guys,

I think that this should definitely be exportable. I'm also going to get a customization done so that these aren't stored in the database, but are saved in a .txt file on the database in some sort of csv format.
Right now, we cannot do database dumps via the admin panel because support says the database is too large and will time out if I use it. That's nice to have a feature I cannot use.
But yeah... if I could save this LARGE amount of data somewhere in a txt file and also have it exportable to xls, that would be excellent!!

Ya know, I figured out an interesting work around. It's horrible that I should have to do this, but here goes.
When you click the 'show more' button, you'll see the website address at the top says how many entries it is limiting it by (I dunno how to describe that... it is limiting how many entries it shows? Maybe that's better). So if you see a '40' at the end of the web address, that's the max entries it will show. I needed something like 2500 to show, so i threw that in there, and whammo, it displayed all of them. I then highlighted all of the entries (which were keywords by the way), and then 'pasted special' in an Excel file as text. It worked out as well as it possibly could, and will be useful for PPC, etc.
Hope that helps. In the mean time, I hope ViArt can get their stuff together and allow exporting of data like this. What's the point of even having this data if you can't export it? Ridiculous.
