Hi,

 

Thank you for your response. I will use dataloader to export some of the records which meet the criteria.

There are a variety of ways to export the data. The easiest way is to use the Weekly Data Export feature under Setup. This will extract all the data in every object of your instance including custom objects, and email you a ZIP file that contains multiple CSV files. 

 

Or you could use the Force.com Data Loader  and extract the single object you need to a CSV file.
