How do you export SF2 samples to WAV files?

I need to export each of the samples in a SF2 file to separate WAV files,
so my DAW's sample player can import them.
Seems like this should be intuitive, but I haven't figured it out yet.

Anybody know how to do this with the Viena editor?

edit: As Rosanna Dana Dana would say, "NEVERMIND!"
I was working on a small laptop. Anyway,
I selected the Sample tab,
and scrolled to the bottom,
and found the "export to wav option", in the 'Tools" panel.

Would be great if all the samples could be exported at once to a folder.
Why? 2 reasons. I want to use my external tools to clean up the samples and put them back into the SF2 file.
And I want the separate wav files to import into my DAW's sample player, as mentioned above.

Currently the easiest way to do it is to save a "Definitions" file. This file is the SoundFont in readable text format, with extension .csv . All sample are saved in a folder. But no note that sample names may not be equal to the ones in the SoundFont. Look in the "Definitions" file for a hint.
