Insert Item

Inserts an item immediately below the currently selected item in the list. This function can also be invoked by pressing the insert key.

 

Importing and exporting items

There are three different options for importing data into a civil pro schedule, all accessible under the File submenu in the context menu

1.import schedule - invokes the import wizard and adds the imported items to the root of the tree
2.import schedule (as child) - invokes the import wizard and adds the imported items as children to the currently selected node
3.import (structured) - This can only be used to import schedule created in civil pro and exported using the export(structured) option

 

There are two different ways to export the schedule, both are accessible under the File submenu in the context menu

1. export schedule - exports the currently select rows to a flat csv file (no tree structure). See exporting data for more.

2. export (structure) - exports the schedule as a cpx file for importing back into civil pro using the import(structured) option

 

If you want an export that reflects the structure of the file, print a schedule report and export to excel/pdf etc. using the options in the report preview control.

 

 

Lock Structure

Prevents the structure of the treelist from being changed through drag and drop operations. The structure of the schedule items register is locked by default and must be unlocked before modifying the structure.
