First, you will need to save your project file in the word format.
Click
Save As in the “File” menu.
The screen will prompt you.
Scroll down to “
text” and then type the name of the file.
Now, click
Save.
Once you have your file in the proper format, the Project Wizard will open. You will have a choice between creating a new map for exporting from scratch, or using an existing map. If this is your first time exporting, choose create a new map.
If you create a new map, you will need to choose what information you wish to export: tasks, resources, or assignments. You can then select the options for the text file: “Export includes headers,” “Include assignment rows in output,” your text delimiter and file origin. Once you make your selections, click next.
Now is where you need to get specific. In “Export Filter,” You can specify what you want exported – All Tasks, completed tasks, budget information, etc. Verify the mapping of the data in the chart by selecting the fields to export, and double check the preview box. This is how your exported information will look once completed. Click next.
The final step to perform in Project is to click Save Map. Project already comes with existing map templates including “Who Does What” Report, “Compare to Baseline,” and “Top Level Tasks List.” Name your map and click save. Then, click Finish.
If you have exported using an already existing map, you will specify what information you wish to export and then be taken to a screen that already has the table filled in. Confirm the information and click Finish to complete the export
