As part of our Maintenance Plan we need to add a list of about 7000 new activity codes from an excel file to Primavera 5 SP6. Is there any other easier way apart from importing into Suretrak, P3 and then Primavera 5or copying and pasting individual codes from excel to Primavera 5. Does Primavera 5 have any functionality to batch import and add multiple new activity codes (in our case 7000). Any ideas and suggestions would be much appreciated.

Hi Raymund finally got around to getting Dictionary 50.xls. Can I use dictinary 50 for primavera 5 or do I need dictionary 60. Do you have any guide as to how to use this excel file. Seems to be very slow task to even add a single activity code. I basically did the following steps:
1. get activity code to select project node I wanted
2. Inserted new activity code and
3. Then pressed set activity node. took ages and then crashed.

Vivek,
Use the excel file to import through the SDK.
Search for the excel file Dictionary60
Hi Raymund we need to populate the activity code dictionary.
Hi,
Just asking if it's the Activity Code Dictionary or Activity Code Assignment?
