You want to export the address, not the private key, from multibit? Just click the "copy address to clipboard" button and past into text file, repeat if needed.

You can modify the address all you want it will only result in you not getting any bitcoins when you use the modified address. Best case you modified the address in a way that makes it invalid, worst case you modified the address in a way that no private key for the modified address exisits.

Maybe you should tell what you are actually trying to do, because I think you are after vanity addresses and took a wrong turn somewhere.

i already try that, but it's make me tired.
let say i want to create 100 address or more, and i want to export that address into text file.
it's so tired if i copy paste manually, so if anyone knows how to export them all at once, like export private keys.

export=copy to text file? if so i think the only way is to copy paste it manually, if its so tiring for you, you can do it atleast copy 10-20 addresses in a day

No, actually there is a way to automatically export your whole wallet in a text file with their private keys. I did this when I was using vanitygen addresses so long time ago. I couldn't exactly remember how to do it, if I find it I'll update my post. You can also ask it in Multibit board, you can find an answer.

Thanks for your information.
After i discover myself, the problem is solved :)

the whole address is is C:\\AppData\Roaming\MultiBit\wallet-data\wallet-unenc-backup directory
and the address is located at your wallet name (wallet) at wallet-xxxxx.info
the whole address is in there. i'm very happy now :)
