you can just select all rows in a grid, and select 'Copy' from the popup
menu associated with that grid widget. This will copy the whole
recordset to the clipboard, as tab-separated data. You can then just
paste into another GNOME application (an editor, for instance).

In the GNOME 2 version, we've added the option to export as comma
separated also. And this, without the need to copy/paste, just by
selecting which file you want to save to.
