# Utilities: Export VSB to Other Formats

The second tab of the [Extract Export](/vspy-3-documentation/vehicle-spy-main-menus/main-menu-tools/utilities-extract-export.md) interface (Figure 1) reads extracted VSB files and exports them into various other signal or message file formats.\
\
Follow these steps to export an extracted VSB file to another format:

1. [Extract](/vspy-3-documentation/vehicle-spy-main-menus/main-menu-tools/utilities-extract-export/utilities-extract-from-sd-card.md) the VSB files from the SD card.
2. Verify the **Output Directory** is where the extracted VSB files are.
3. Select the VSB file to export in the raw data file list.
4. Pick a Signal or Message file format using the checkboxes.
5. If a Signal file format is used, select which signals to export.
6. Click the **Export** button to make the new file.
7. Watch the status under the Export button.

In the raw data VSB file list area there is a convenient right click menu available where an extracted VSB file can be quickly opened for further study with [Data Analysis](/vspy-3-documentation/vehicle-spy-main-menus/main-menu-measurement/data-analysis.md) or [Review Buffer](/vspy-3-documentation/vehicle-spy-main-menus/main-menu-file/review-buffer.md).\
\
In the Signal Data checkbox area, the **Force Rate** value forces a periodic rate on all signal timestamps in the exported file. A value of -1 means the signal timestamps will be left untouched. That is, the signals in the exported file will use the timestamps from the VSB file.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.intrepidcs.com/vspy-3-documentation/vehicle-spy-main-menus/main-menu-tools/utilities-extract-export/utilities-export-vsb-to-other-formats.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
