Using a spreadsheet program do one of the following: - Create a new file and enter column headings and any other fixed data in accordance with the guidelines given in About Resource Files.
- Open an existing file (one of the sample files).
Enter your piping/tubing data into the standard, definition table or design rule table - refer to About Resource Files for further guidance on the contents of these files.
When customizing
an existing table (for example one of the sample tables), you should note that the format of
the table should not be changed:
- All
attribute values should be of the
correct type (string, integer, etc.).
- Some attributes must be preceded by a V_; follow the format of the examples given in the sample files.
- You can add comments to the
table by adding additional columns.
- Do not
leave a blank line in the table; table processing stops at a
blank line.
When you have created and saved your resource file, use Project Resource Management (PRM) to assign the resource file to the appropriate item in the related resource set table.
In PRM, bind the resource set to a project.
