I’m a bit rusty on P3 but as I recall you can run a report under Tools, Tabular Report, Costs and send the result to screen, printer or in your case, a CSV file for Excel to use.

You can also display data on the screen in columns as you do normally to administer/modify your programme and use Ctrl-A to select all cells/data, followed by Ctrl-C to copy it and Ctrl-V to paste it into an Excel spreadsheet. You do loose the grouping etc but keep the order. Try it and see.

No worries - was all had those...



Run (or create) a report that will deliver the data you want. EV, Budget, Actual etc. I would suggest just getting the report to do Grand Totals as this is all you will need for a graph.



When you run the report, send it to an ASCII CSV file which will be saved in a default folder which you can change. If selected, Excel will open this file the moment it is saved and you can do your thing.



Any more detail just PM me.
