<p><strong>Description:</strong></p>
<p>The <code>Export</code> method exports entries from a calendar.
The information is exported to an iCal or vCal file. For more information
about these two formats, see the <a href="GUID-AE9A928B-F938-49B5-BC9E-72CB42046571.html#GUID-AE9A928B-F938-49B5-BC9E-72CB42046571">Calendar
Service overview page</a>.</p>
<p>This method can be called both synchronously and asynchronously.</p>
<p><strong>Syntax:</strong></p>
<p>For synchronous calls:</p>
<pre class="codeblock" id="GUID-867E59FA-FCED-42D7-A1F9-18FE2C63BA2F">result = so.IDataSource.Export(criteria);</pre>
<p>For asynchronous calls:</p>
<pre class="codeblock" id="GUID-5102176B-E45E-4E01-BDCE-7A0205C1E4F9">result = so.IDataSource.Export(criteria, callback);</pre>
<p><strong>Arguments:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><p><code>criteria</code>:</p>
<p>This is an object that specifies the entries to export and optionally
the source calendar. For more information about the object properties and
how to define them, see section <a href="GUID-36434377-FA7E-45F2-AEB3-BA0B7A378422.html#GUID-36434377-FA7E-45F2-AEB3-BA0B7A378422">Criteria for exporting calendar entries</a>.</p>
</li>
<li><p><code>callback</code>:</p>
<p>The <code>callback</code> argument is the name of the method
that is executed when an asynchronous <code>Export</code> call has
results or status information to return. You must define this method separately.
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
define the <code>callback</code> method.</p>
<p>This argument is used only with an asynchronous <code>Export</code> call.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Return value:</strong></p>
<p>If synchronous, the <code>Export</code> method returns an object
that contains an error code, an error message, and optionally the exported
calendar entries.</p>
