Export link field instead of display field

Hello,

When I export my class table I want the export to be an exact copy of my sql database

Which is structured like and appears this way and is populating correctly from end user input.

ClassID --- StudentID

Art101-1 1

Art101-1 2

Art101-1 3
However when I am exporting I get the Display field contents rather than the link field contents so my export looks like:

ClassID --- StudentID

Art101-1 Johnny

Art101-1 Jane

Art101-1 Sandy
I assume that it is somewhere in the _export.php but I can't find it.

Please advise and thanks,

Joe

I recommend you to create an additional view for this table ("Add view" button on Detasource tables screen) and use it for export purposes.

Thank you, makes sense now that you mention it
