The information is the same, just presented differently. The Open and Close (last) for an individual trade does not represent anything of interest (to reality). Therefore when viewing the data in the "Intraday Data Editor", you see various information in the Open, such as "FIRST_TRADE" and "LAST_TRADE", which represent the start and end of a series of trades within the same millisecond. This specific information is not present in the exported data, but can easily be surmised. In both cases the Close/Last shows the actual traded price, which will match to the High for an Ask trade and to the Low for a Bid Trade. As the High is the Best Ask price and the Low is the Best Bid price.
