Topic:
Trying to export interpretation to a file and nothing exports.

Description:
Trying to export interpretation to a file using IESX DataManager.  The
interpretation exports and ends successfully but the file is virtually empty
with only a few header cards.

Solution:
This happens if you don't have TIME attribute for the specified
horizon. Interpretation export only works when TIME attribute 
is present, otherwise other attributes are ignored.

A possible workaround is to create a bogus TIME attribute. 

1.) Use MapView to read in data for one of the attributes to be
exported (with the widest areal extent).

2.) Save this attribute as TIME, either through:
    a.) XYZ points save, without gridding, or,
    b.) Use surface cuts after gridding - depending on circumstances.

3.) Proceed with interpretation export.

Normally you have TIME attribute and do not experience this
problem, but sometimes this situation arises after grid import into 
IESX from an external file or using applications developed with
Developers Kit (DK) such as SeisExtract.
