Exporting Worksheets

Vectorworks worksheet files can be exported and read by spreadsheet programs, such as Excel, as well as by some word processing programs. Because many of these programs have different format requirements, several export formats are available. These include comma delimited, tab delimited, merge, DIF, and SYLK. Using the tab delimited format, for example, creates a file that can be opened as a table in Microsoft Word.

To export a worksheet from a Vectorworks file:

  1. Open the worksheet to export.

  2. From the worksheet window, select File > Export Worksheet.

  3. The Export Worksheet dialog box opens.

  4. Select the format for the export, and whether to export all rows or only the selected rows. Click OK and specify the name and location of the exported worksheet.

  5. Click Save. The specified worksheet rows are exported to the desired location in the set format.
