I had a recent situation where a tool like this would have been helpful instead of manually trying to piece the data together.
I would lean toward a CSV file but open to anything that is straight forward. In my particular case I was trying to get the route patterns and CTI route point info out of a backup set and their associated settings (calling party number mask, prefix digits, etc) from a DRF set that wouldn't restore.
