How do I export a table to Excel?

ANSWER: Any table that is displayed in the GUI may be exported to Excel by selecting File > Export Current Table > To Excel.


Is there a limit on the number of rows that can be exported to Excel?

Extended Question: Some of the results tables I have for a bridge model are cut-off around 65,000 rows when exported to Excel. Is there an explanation for this limitation?

ANSWER: Excel versions before 2007 are limited to 256 columns and 65,536 rows. With the release of Excel 2007, these limits extended to 16,385 columns and 1,048,576 rows. If Excel 2007 (or a later version) is installed, CSI Software will automatically use the enhanced data handling when creating Excel files.

Additional suggestions include export to Access database, which does not limit the number of rows, or incrementally export smaller portions of the model.
