How to export data from umbraco CMS?

Question

I have a project which is using umbraco cms, ie. MSSQL (Now we are rebuilding the site in WordPress). Which i cannot understand the relations. It's difficult in Umbraco. So i would like to download/Export the content directly from Umbraco CMS. But in cms i don't find any option to export the bulk data. Is any other way to do this? Or if you can help me to find any free tools. Or any free tools that can do MSSQL to MySQL simply?

Thanks In Advance / Rajeev

You can do this by creating a package. In the Developer section of Umbraco, expand the Packages node and right-click on 'Created packages' and click 'Create'. Click on the package and in the 'Package Contents' tab of the editor you can select a content node with an option to include all of its child nodes.

Complete the required fields in the 'Package Properties' tab. Once you've pressed 'Save & Publish' you will be given the option to download the package.

You can now download your content in this package and install it on another instance of Umbraco by using the 'Install local package' option.
