Title: CSV Export
Post by: Jayson on November 25, 2014, 03:54:06 am

I have been using the CSV exporter, which is all very simple and behaves nicely except that it doesn't seem to work with tagged values.

Has anyone else struck this problem or have a solution to it?

Cheers

Can you please confirm which program version of Enterprise Architect you are currently running?  (See: Help | About EA)

Have you tried adding a TagValue_ or TagNotes_ column to your CSV import/export specification by clicking the "Add Tagged Value Field" button?

What type of tagged value you are trying to export?  What is the result in your CSV?

Hi, I'm running 9.3.

I have gone in and added both tagged value field -> value and -> notes.

When the file opens, the fields are blank.

Cheers  :)

Oops!

Forgot to mention they are my own tagged values and are a mix of RefGUID, int, string ,etc.

Hi,

As far as I know, exporting Tagged values is not available via CSV exporter in version 9... I think it was added in 10.

I am running v9.0.908, so I'm not sure if the "Add Tagged Value Fields" is available in the CSV Import/Export Specification window... it's not in v 9.0.908

I hope that helps!
Don

Cheers Don!

Looks like its time to switch to 11 then!
We have both 9.3 & 11 running, but I have been timid to migrate in case my MDGs break.

Thanks  :)
