No, it won't cause any problems.

If you don't see the drop down (it doesn't matter if there are orders in your db or not ... you still should see the add on link under "Tools".)
1) Check to see if you have something like "Admin Profiles" installed. If so, make sure the sure you are logged in under has permission to view the new add-on.
2) If the above does not work then check to make sure you have uploaded all files to the correct locations. The SQL patch has nothing to do with installing the drop down link (that is strictly file related.)
3) You can ignore the error message about the download_ship field already being in place. It means you already installed the SQL patch and it worked.
Let me know if that helps.
Thank you econcepts.
As I was going through your reply I realized that I had made a bone head mistake. In my local directory there was admin and then another renamed admin folder. I read the directions and was warned about this but was fooled by the admin file that was in my system.
I uploaded to the proper folder and now have the link.
So I have advanced and now have the link and can get into the program however I am not getting all the information for each account (see the gif below).
When I export the CSV it includes information in:
*Order ID
*Customer email
*Ship Dest Type
*Customers Telephone
*Order Total Order notes (Credit card AUTH info, not the comments from the customer)
The headers are there for all fields but no info other than the fields I listed above.

Once again any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time.

Hi Econcepts,
Thank you for the reply.
I have tried many combinations of options (and use "Include orders already downloaded in export") and the results are always the same. I never receive data for
First Name
Last Name
Company
Delivery Street
Delivery Suburb
Delivery City
Delivery State
Delivery Post Code
Delivery Country
Now that has me thinking. My cart is used as a registration for an event so there is no shipping. Would that make a difference?
I was thinking that it was going to give me the information for the customer account but now that I think about it I bet you are getting the information from the shipping. That makes sense.
I think I just answered my own question.

OK, let me go change one of my registration to require shipping and see what happens.
I thank you for your help and hope I have not wasted to much of your time.
That solved the problem.
In my product listing I changed it to "No, Shipping Address Required" and "Yes, Always Free Shipping"
It adds the free shipping field on the checkout which I did not want but I will work through that so I can capture the information for export.
One other question that I think I saw somewhere else but can't remember where.
Is there a way to export the customer comments that are entered on the checkout page? Right now the comment field that is exported is the credit card info.
Thank you again for your help.

Just downloaded and installed - no problems.
Reading through this thread I have seen references to 'test mode' and 'product per row' and 'order per row'
where and how are these configured?
AM I being thick - I havent spotted any configuration liks.:unsure:
:blush:I dont have Tools > Export Shipping and Order Info
I have Tools > Orders Export - click this and I go to Mat's Orders Exporter page. (which does export order details)
When I installed I renamed the 'Admin' install folder to match my the name of my admin folder.
Ah - ha - there are 2 different add ons for exporting orders
Orders Exporter 1.0 and Export Shipping Information 1.3.2
I'lll try installing the 'other' one -:oops:
