I am working on getting a quantity together for my building of the amount of ductwork (mostly the area of sheet metal needed). I made the duct schedule and got the area in there and EVEN asked it to calculate the totals so that we can have a total...Unfortunately, it doesn't show up and I can't copy and paste any part of the table into Excel to try and do it myself. PLEASE, someone tell me I don't have to go one by one and put them in by hand!!!

Find the schedule in your browser and open it for editing... click file/export/schedule. This will give you a tab delimited txt file that you can open in excel.

I'm using MEP 2010 so I can't do a file/export unless I should save it as it's own revit file first? I have the option to save as a new file but only an rvt file, not a text or anything else...Maybe that's what you meant?

I guess through the help function it said I should go to my schedule view, which I would assume is just the one that shows the schedule, then click the R button and go to export>reports>schedule BUT it only lets me pick room and area with the SCHEDULE part greyed out so I can't pick it...any advice?

I don't understand. You say you are in MEP. Then why would you have to save as a REVIT file? ... It is one already! I don't have MEP but I believe the process is the same ... follow what I told you to do. It works - I use it all the time.

Well basically the deal was that there is no FILE button to hit. I had to be in the schedule and then actually click on the header (not just anywhere apparently) and then hit the big R button in the top left then click export, report, schedule which automatically saved it as a delimited text file. There is an option to save the report/schedule as its OWN rvt file if you right click the schedule in the project browser, but that just made no sense because it didn't link any of the information, it just brought in the headers basically. Thanks for the help, though...

Sorry ... I'm in 2009 and you didn't say you were in 2010. You should always say what platform you are on in your posts. Oops .. yo did say in your second post and I missed that - sorry.
