To resize a data selection, click and hold one of the resize handles on the borders or corners,
move them to the new size and release the mouse button.
To move the data selection, click and hold anywhere on the data selection, move it to its new
desired location and release the mouse button.
Note
In a Text or PDF file, when you move the selection rectangle directly after extracting data,
you can use it to select data for the next extraction.
However, moving the selection rectangle that appears after clicking on a field in the Data
Model actually changes which data is extracted into that field.
CSV/XLS/XLSX file or database recordset
Tabular data is displayed in the Data Viewer in a table where multiple fields appear for each
line and row in the original data.
To select data, click on a field, keep the mouse button down, drag to the last field that you want
to select and release the mouse button. You cannot select multiple lines with tabular data.
Alternatively you can select fields just like files in the Windows Explorer: keep the Ctrl button
pressed down while clicking on fields to select or deselect them, or keep the Shift button
pressed down to select consecutive fields.
XML File
XML data is displayed as a tree view inside the Data Viewer. To get a better overview you can
also collapse any XML level.
In this tree view you can select nodes just like files in the Windows Explorer: keep the Ctrl
button pressed down while clicking on nodes to select or deselect them, or keep the Shift
button pressed down to select consecutive nodes.
You can select multiple fields even if those fields are in different nodes.
Note
The Goto step is rarely used in XML extraction workflows. The DataMapper moves
through the file using Xpath, a standard query language to identify and navigate nodes in
