Hi everyone.

Clark, the stretch tool is awesome. A great addition!

So, I've been exporting my timber list as a txt.. I finally picked up MS office for mac, reconfigured to export to excel, but nothing happens... What did I miss?

Thanks!

Mac or PC?

Mac? Text only as far as I know.

The timber list direct-to-excel feature only works on PC.

I export it to the txt file.
Open Excel, then open the file directly.
It will ask you how you want it to come in - I believe delimited is what you want, as it will separate the data based on comma or tabs.

Works well.
I need to get into the list export script and have it come in with different column arrangement so it can match my estimates...
