     7 <p><strong>Description:</strong></p>
       
     8 <p>The <code>Export</code> method exports a contact from a contacts
       
     9 database. The information is exported to a vCard file.</p>
       
    10 <p>This method can be called both synchronously and asynchronously.</p>
       
    11 <p><strong>Syntax:</strong></p>
       
    12 <p>For synchronous calls:</p>
       
    13 <pre class="codeblock" id="GUID-34DA0408-CEF1-45A8-A9BE-7374FD7D94C6">result = so.IDataSource.Export(criteria);</pre>
       
    14 
       
    15 <p>For asynchronous calls:</p>
       
    16 <pre class="codeblock" id="GUID-C2FBCD68-0924-42CE-836C-69F4A1ADEF3B">result = so.IDataSource.Export(criteria, callback);</pre>
       
    17 
       
    18 <p><strong>Arguments:</strong></p>
       
    19 <ul>
       
    20 <li><p><code>criteria</code>:</p>
       
    21 
       
    22 <p>This is an object that specifies the contact to export and optionally
       
    23 the source database. For more information about the object properties and
       
    24 how to define them, see section <a href="GUID-92D152D3-E29A-4010-B5A0-9D37A0369A21.html#GUID-92D152D3-E29A-4010-B5A0-9D37A0369A21">Criteria for exporting a contact</a>.</p>
       
    25 
       
    26 </li>
       
    27 <li><p><code>callback</code>:</p>
       
    28 
       
    29 <p>The <code>callback</code> argument is the name of the method
       
    30 that is executed when an asynchronous <code>Export</code> call has
       
    31 results or status information to return. You must define this method separately.
       
    32 Follow the instructions in section <a href="GUID-C7C3B541-8D28-4DC6-9003-ECF57F26C608.html#GUID-C7C3B541-8D28-4DC6-9003-ECF57F26C608">Defining the callback handler for an asynchronous method</a> to
       
    33 define the <code>callback</code> method.</p>
       
    34 <p>This argument is used only with an asynchronous <code>Export</code> call.</p>
       
    35 
       
    36 </li>
       
    37 </ul>
       
    38 <p><strong>Return value:</strong></p>
       
    39 <p>If synchronous, the <code>Export</code> method returns an object
       
    40 that contains an error code and an error message.</p>
       
    41 <p>If asynchronous, the method returns an object that contains a transaction
       
    42 ID for the <a href="GUID-C7C3B541-8D28-4DC6-9003-ECF57F26C608.html#GUID-C7C3B541-8D28-4DC6-9003-ECF57F26C608"><code>callback</code></a> instance,
       
    43 an error code, and an error message. When the asynchronous call has completed, <code>callback</code> returns
       
    44 an object that contains an error code and an error message (see <a href="GUID-C7C3B541-8D28-4DC6-9003-ECF57F26C608.html#GUID-E43BC9EA-3EBE-4C7F-A57E-A1C33BB01CF4">Table: Callback return value</a>).</p>
