You can use the SELECT INTO statement to export formatted data to a file.

Data Export with an SQL Query

The following query exports data into a file formatted in comma-separated values (CSV):

SELECT DisplayLink, Title INTO [csv://WebSearch.txt] FROM [WebSearch] WHERE SearchTerms = 'Fantastic Four'

You can specify other formats in the file URI. The possible delimiters are tab, semicolon, and comma with the default being a comma. The following example exports tab-separated values:

SELECT DisplayLink, Title INTO [csv://WebSearch.txt;delimiter=tab] FROM [WebSearch] WHERE SearchTerms = 'Fantastic Four'

C#

String connectionString = "ApiKey=abc123; CustomSearchID=def456;";

using (GoogleSearchConnection connection = new GoogleSearchConnection(connectionString)) {
  GoogleSearchCommand cmd = new GoogleSearchCommand("SELECT DisplayLink, Title INTO [csv://WebSearch.txt] FROM [WebSearch] WHERE SearchTerms = 'Fantastic Four' ", connection);
  int rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
} 

VB.NET

Dim connectionString As [String] = "ApiKey=abc123; CustomSearchID=def456;" 

Using connection As New GoogleSearchConnection(connectionString)
  Dim cmd As New GoogleSearchCommand("SELECT DisplayLink, Title INTO [csv://WebSearch.txt] FROM [WebSearch] WHERE SearchTerms = 'Fantastic Four'", connection)
  Dim rowsAffected As Integer = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
End Using

You can specify other file formats in the URI. The following example exports tab-separated values:

C#

String connectionString = "ApiKey=abc123; CustomSearchID=def456;";

using (GoogleSearchConnection connection = new GoogleSearchConnection(connectionString)) {
  GoogleSearchCommand cmd = new GoogleSearchCommand("SELECT * INTO [WebSearch] IN [csv://filename=c:/WebSearch.csv;delimiter=tab] FROM [WebSearch] WHERE SearchTerms = 'Fantastic Four'", connection);
  int rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
} 

VB.NET

Dim connectionString As [String] = "ApiKey=abc123; CustomSearchID=def456;" 

Using connection As New GoogleSearchConnection(connectionString)
  Dim cmd As New GoogleSearchCommand("SELECT * INTO [WebSearch] IN [csv://filename=c:/WebSearch.csv;delimiter=tab] FROM [WebSearch] WHERE SearchTerms = 'Fantastic Four'", connection)
  Dim rowsAffected As Integer = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
End Using
