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):

boolean ret = stat.execute("SELECT VisibilityCode, Comment INTO [csv://c:/Analytics.txt] FROM [Analytics] WHERE EntityId = '238'");
System.out.println(stat.getUpdateCount()+" rows affected");

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

Statement stat = conn.createStatement();
boolean ret = stat.execute("SELECT * INTO [Analytics] IN 'csv://filename=c:/Analytics.csv;delimiter=tab' FROM [Analytics] WHERE EntityId = '238'");
System.out.println(stat.getUpdateCount()+" rows affected");
