cheq the following text of F1 help of EXPORT

Syntax

EXPORT parameter_list TO medium [COMPRESSION {ON|OFF}].

Addition:

... COMPRESSION {ON|OFF}

Effect

: This statement stores a data cluster defined using parameter_list in a storage area medium. You can use the COMPRESSION addition to specify whether the data is stored in the cluster in compressed form. You can retrieve a data cluster from the storage area using the IMPORT statement and delete a data cluster using DELETE FROM.

All data objects are archived according to the current byte sequence (endian) and character-like data objects according to the character representation of the current text environment. The identification of the data cluster indicates which byte sequence and character representation have been used during the export. When the data cluster is imported using the IMPORT statement, this identification is evaluated and the data is converted to the current byte sequence and character representation.

Hi!

This statement creates the memory ID automatically. It will put the header line of your viqmfe view into the memory.

export viqmfe to memory id 'ABC'.

You can retrieve it later with this statement, even in a different program, or function module:

import viqmfe from memory id 'ABC'.
