3. Exporting a System from ToolKit to Excel<br />

The export function enables you to extract all of the information you have entered into ToolKit, and the calculated<br />

values/results that ToolKit has made for you. Not only do you get the information in a spreadsheet, database, or text file, but<br />

the relationships between the blocks, components, and other elements of your systems are maintained. Any system created<br />

using any ToolKit module can be exported.<br />

One common use of an export is for review purposes by colleagues who do not have ToolKit. Then, once they have made<br />

their changes to the values in the exported spreadsheet, it can be re-imported back into ToolKit.<br />

To export a System from ToolKit:<br />

1. Select the system you wish to export on the System window.<br />

2. Go to File – Export to open the Export Wizard.<br />

3. The first step of the Wizard is indicating the source of the exported data, which is an internally created Access<br />

database containing your data. Click Next to continue.

Hooray! Your file is uploaded and ready to be published.
