You can export data from an AssetWorX database, asset tree, or equipment class node to a .CSV (comma-separated values), Excel workbook or XML file. The file can then be imported into AssetWorX for use elsewhere. Note that you can export from any equipment node in the asset tree, or from any equipment class. The name you assign to the .CSV, Excel workbook or XML file that is created should identify the exported content.
