Application Notes

The IPEXPIPDATA GX is used to export one or more lines from the current database to individual Geosoft IPDATA format files. The file names are created from the line numbers and the extension ".dat". One file is created for each line. Care should be taken as previously created files in the working directory with the same names will be overwritten.

The IPDATA format was introduced for the DOS IP system, and was produced by running the IPDATA programme on an instrument dump file.
