Exporting Data from WI, Milwaukee
MLSWIS
In selecting data from MLSWIS be sure to select the options below:
On the “Status” option select all the Status Options. Additionally, place the starting date of 1/1/2007 in the “Sold”, “Withdrawn”, and “Cancel” Dates. These options will make sure that data needed to create the appropriate graphs, is collected.
You should also make your normal selection choices by
selecting other options that you would normally select in doing a CMA. In this example, we’ve selected
the area 45 in the city of 
button located in the middle of the
screen to show the data results.
Once you’ve selected the data, you are ready to
export the results. To export the
results, select the 
option as shown below.
Once you’ve selected the ‘Export’ option you will see the Export Dialog box shown below.
On the “2” selection make sure the “Basic Text Export” option is selected. Then press the yellow “Export” button. You will see the “FlexMLS Text Export” screen.
Press the 
button and save the file. Your data will now be saved in the file
location and under the filename you’ve chosen.
Be sure to remember where you save your file. This is the exported file that will be used to create your graphs.
Once you have your exported file, you are ready to run the Neighborhood Buying Patterns application. When you run the application you will need to point to the exported data file, so make sure that you’ve placed the file in an easy to find place. For instructions on how to run the Neighborhood Buying Pattern application, be sure to see the Neighborhood Buying Pattern manual (installed on your desktop when you installed the application).
