Thanks Joe.
So it seems like you are doing it on monthly basis to diff db_ddddmmyy.
Yes I have exported at my windows 10 machine.

I would also like to do it in my linux Fedora 23 gnome, but am facing a
problem.
In Fedora 23 gnome, I am not seeing QSYSQL in database type.  I could only
see the SQLite db type.
I have mariadb installed in my Fedora and could see it at phpMyAdmin page.
What have I missed?
