Has anyone ever tried this or know a way to do this? Im trying to export about 100 sms's from my iphone to my pc and see if i can print them . Does anyone know how to do this?
 
I have never tried this or heard of it but theoretically it should work: If you have jailbroken your iPhone, use OpenSSH and Fugu to connect your iPhone to your computer. You should be able to find the SMS files somewhere and view them. Copy and paste should work for this.

tried that . i didnt find an sms file.
 
Web application to export iPhone SMS to CSV or HTML - iphonesmsexport.com

You should try this web-based application that automates the process of exporting the iPhone SMS database (sms.db) to something more practical, like a CSV file, ideal for spreadsheets, or HTML, for human reading.
No jailbreak needed, no external downloads. It works with a file generated by iTunes at every sync/backup :)
