    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!

  3. PHP script to export MySQL database as tab delimited file » Forums Blogs Wikis Says:

    […] Found a short script today and thought others here might find it useful. It connects to your MySQL server and exports a table as a tab delimited text file. Great if you're trying to import your MySQL data into another program where normal SQL may not work. […]
