Hi All,

How to extract a list of all columns (Query Items) from a Framework model into excel? Model report option doesn't help me as it has a lot of other unwanted data. Even the XML datasource connection technique doesn't work (connection fails) when trying to point to model.xml file.Kindly, please share your thoughts/solution.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
The export to excel of a FM model is only possible with the 3rd party tools like Motio or BSP metamanager. You can try both the tools free for, I think 2 weeks.

And also it is possible to do it with excel using vba.

Good luck

Hi,

You can try using Excel Macro with XML DOM objects, parsing the XML Tags from model.xml file.This may not be a very straight forward approach though.

Thanks a lot for your replies. I'm not familiar with vba scripting. Has anyone tried this before with vba ? If so, then please share the script.

Thanks in advance.
