Importing & Exporting A Library (FE format)

You may want to backup & restore a complete library in order to supply a colleague or client who has Fast Estimate with a copy of your library.

Key Features:

  • Allows easy transfer of individual libraries between Fast Estimate systems

Importing a Library:

  1. Run the Import Library option from the File, Import/Export menu
  2. Select the file to be imported (must be a FE exported library document)
  3. Select OK to import the library

Exporting a Library:

Exporting is the reverse of Importing. Simply select the schedule to be exported and where the file is to be saved and press OK

Notes

  1. Dims, Notes and other associated data are exported with the schedule. Links are optionally included
  2. If you want to supply files that have links to them these must be supplied separately
  3. When importing a library duplicate items and resources may result
  4. Unreferenced resources are not included in the export process
