built-in import/export tools

This page mentions something about "The BUILT-IN import/export TOOLS in plain text format...."
Where are these "built-in tools" exactly? Because I can't find any menu or Help resources regarding these tools.

There is information about platform. And in different configurations it can be in different places.
So, for example, platform implements built-in tool for export tabular section to file.
In help you can find article "How do I Print a Table or Save It to a File?"

Also you can use TextDocument object.

TextDoc = New TextDocument;
TextDoc.Put("Hello world!");
TextDoc.Write("C:\NewText.txt");

Please, explain your task.

Hi Alexey,

Sorry if my description of problem wasn't clear enough.
I'm currently evaluating 1C to see if I can use it for my new development platform.
A typical situation I'm facing is how to import master data and beginning balances from user's legacy software so user don't have to entry them manually on 1C.
That's why I'm interested with "BUILT-IN IMPORT/EXPORT TOOL" feature (especially IMPORT)
Are there any ready-to-use tool for that need?

There are tools and mechanisms for import and export, but it seems like you want to have a comprehensive tool which will do exchange with any other softwere. In this case answer is no, there is no comprehensive import/export tool.
But you can configure the existing tools or develop a new one to provide import and export for specific software. There are lots of examples and ready to use solutions for import and export to/from 1C.

thank you for the confirmation...at least now I can stop looking for the tool and start creating one ^_^
