Export MySQL data to a tab-delimited spreadsheet
This data export script has turned out to be quite useful for me. Assuming that others might also find uses for it, I'm sharing the source code. If you have the need to export MySQL data to a tab-delimited spreadsheet, then the Data Export Utility is for you!

Cool script Sam!
I'll be adding this to my little collection of utilities
Handy for debuging and the like…

Thanks Kalan! I've been using this predominantly to export user contact info for marketing campaigns, but I imagine I'll find many more uses for it, and I hope you do too!

Thank you Sam! Was having trouble getting the data to populate correctly! I see now where my issue was. You have saved me a mornings worth of trial and errors. Thank you again!
