Export a Schedule

Send schedule data to a file that spreadsheets can open and manipulate.

You can export a schedule as a delimited text file that can be opened in many spreadsheet programs.

If you add a schedule to a sheet, you can export it as a CAD format.

To export a schedule

  1. Open a schedule view.
  2. Click ExportReportsSchedule.
  3. In the Export Schedule dialog, specify a name and directory for the schedule, and click Save.

    The Export Schedule dialog appears.

  4. Under Schedule appearance, select export options:
    • Export column headers: specifies whether Revit column headers export.
      • One row: only the bottom column header exports.
      • Multiple rows, as formatted: all column headers export, including grouped column header cells.
    • Export group headers, footers, and blank lines: specifies whether sort group header rows, footers, and blank lines export.
  5. Under Output options, specify how you want to display the data in the output file:
    • Field delimiter: specifies whether fields in the output file are separated by tabs, spaces, commas, or semi-colons.
    • Text qualifier: specifies whether the text in each field of the output file should be enclosed by a single or double quote, or no annotation.
  6. Click OK.

Revit saves the file as delimited text, a format that can be opened in spreadsheet programs, such as Microsoft® Excel or IBM® Lotus® 1-2-3®.
