To Export a Schedule

Use this procedure to export the contents of a schedule table to a separate file. You can export the data in the following file formats:

• Microsoft Excel spreadsheet (XLS) files (2 formats)
• Comma-separated values (CSV) files
• Tab-delimited text (TXT) files

Note: You must have Microsoft Excel installed to export a file to Excel format.

1. Open the drawing file that includes the table you want to export.
2. Select the schedule table.
3. Click Schedule Table tabModify panelExport.

   The Export Schedule Table dialog box opens.

4. Select a file type to Save As.
5. Enter a name for the file, or click Browse to select a file, and click OK.

   The Format dialog box opens if you selected an XLS file type for Save As Type.

6. Convert the schedule values in the exported file by selecting Use Unformatted Decimal Value or Convert to Formatted Text.

   The format of values does not change in the drawing file. Selecting Convert to Formatted Text displays the architectural format (6'-0") in Microsoft Excel.
