Thank Svend for the Answer. 
To manually give the order to export is not an automatic procedure.
An automatic procedure would be "EpiData.exe  <input order or keystroke file " 
- which exist under DOS - and than you can create e.g. a .bat file. Automatic
procedure is specially useful when you have to export every day 40 files.
