Website Upgrade Incoming - we're working on a new look (and speed!) standby while we deliver the project

Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Opinion or Assistance requested:  Is there a different way to import & export to excel FILTERED pred / successor import data than to give the pred and successor a unique logic note code, then the matching activity a unique activity code.  Otherwise the problem, or bug, or tricky issue is that ALL relationships are exported - relationships DO NOT follow the activity filter export.  This makes is very difficult to import in activities with multiple users because the relationship import might over-right changes on other, non-filtered activities by others or say older select data into a later updated version.   The problem is relationship data only applies a logic specific filter, and the only column that a variable can be applied is the relationship comment column.  The xer and xlm exports do not have a filter option.  Is there a 3rd party software or Macro than resolves this?

here is a solution

1. copy the project 

2. filter for what you do not need

3. You are left with what you want 

4. Export to excel do what you want to do in excel 

5. Export the data again from the project that has everthing then delete the data not the headrers 

and paste the data from the filter file into the project files that has everything

6. import into p6
