Dim session As New NotesSession
Dim db As NotesDatabase
Dim exporter As NotesDXLExporter
Dim output As String
Dim filenum As Integer
Call session.Initialize
Set db = session.GetDatabase("", "names", False)
Set exporter = session.CreateDXLExporter
output = exporter.Export(db)
filenum = FreeFile
Open "c:¥dxl¥names.dxl" For Output As filenum
Write #filenum, output
Close filenum
End Sub
