Vectorworks worksheet files can be exported and read by spreadsheet programs, as well as by some word processing programs. Because these programs have different format requirements, several export formats are available. For example, a tab delimited text file can be opened as a table in Microsoft Word. The following formats are available:

       Excel (.xls, .xlsx)

       Tab delimited text (.txt)

       Comma delimited text (.csv)

       DIF (.dif)

       SYLK (.slk)

When exporting to Excel, as much as possible, formatting and formulas are preserved. An alert displays when exact translation isn’t possible. You can export multiple worksheets to Excel format simultaneously with the Publish command; see Publicação em Lote.

To export a worksheet from a Vectorworks file:

1.      Do one of the following:

       Select the command from the File > Export menu.

       Open the worksheet to export, and select the command from the worksheet’s File menu.

The Export Worksheet dialog box opens.

2.Specify the name and location of the exported worksheet.
