NAME
       mdb-export - Export data in an MDB database table to CSV format.

SYNOPSIS
       mdb-export [-H] [-d delimiter] [-R row_delim] [[-Q] | [-q quote [-X escape]]] [-I backend] [-D format] [-N namespace] [-b strip|raw|octal] database table

DESCRIPTION
       mdb-export is a utility program distributed with MDB Tools.

       It  produces  a CSV (comma separated value) output for the given table.
       Such output is suitable for importation into databases or spreadsheets.

OPTIONS
       -H     Suppress header row

       -Q     Don't wrap text-like fields (text, memo, date)  in  quotes.   If
	      not  specified text fiels will be surrounded by " (double quote)
	      characters.

       -d     Specify an alternative column delimiter If no delimiter is spec‐
	      ified, table names will be delimited by a , (comma) character.

       -R     Specify a row delimiter

       -I backend
	      INSERT  statements  (instead of CSV). You must specify which SQL
	      backend dialect to use. Allowed values are: access, sybase, ora‐
	      cle, postgres, mysql and sqlite.

       -D     Set the date format (see strftime(3) for details)

       -q     Use to wrap text-like fields. Default is ".

       -X     Use to escape quoted characters within a field.  Default is dou‐
	      bling.

       -N namespace
	      Prefix identifiers with namespace.

       -b strip|raw|octal
	      Binary export mode: strip binaries, export  as-is,  or  output
	      style octal data.

NOTES
ENVIRONMENT
       MDB_JET3_CHARSET
	      Defines  the charset of the input JET3 (access 97) file. Default
	      is CP1252. See iconv(1).

       MDBICONV
	      Defines the output charset to use for the SQL file.  Default  is
	      UTF-8. mdbtools must have been compiled with iconv.

       MDBOPTS
	      semi-column separated list of options:

	      ·	 use_index

	      ·	 no_memo

	      ·	 debug_like

	      ·	 debug_write

	      ·	 debug_usage

	      ·	 debug_ole

	      ·	 debug_row

	      ·	 debug_props

	      ·	 debug_all is a shortcut for all debug_* options
