You're right, this new admin report allows an admin to export student grades for all students across all courses on a single spreadsheet.

To apply the two patches, see this page:

Cheers,

I have added buttons to allow selection and deselection of all the courses in the initial screen at http://SERVER/admin/report/globalgrades/index.php titled which begins with 'Select the courses to include in the report:'.

The attached patch file is the original patch file as written by Francois, with the following added:

@@ -90,6 +90,14 @@

print_course_list(NULL, NULL, NULL, -1);

+ $strselectall = get_string("selectall");
+ $strdeselectall = get_string("deselectall");

+ echo "<input type=\"button\" onclick=\"checkall()\" value=\"$strselectall\" />\n";
+ echo "<input type=\"button\" onclick=\"uncheckall()\" value=\"$strdeselectall\" />\n";
+ echo "</p>";

$exports = get_list_of_plugins('grade/export', 'CVS');
$exportnames = array();
if (!empty($exports)) {

One important detail - its not uncommon to have pastoral tutors, ie teachers with a cohort of students across several courses and the teacher does not necessarily teach in all those courses.
