Shared variables contain configuration information, such as the data type and variable type. Complete the following steps to export shared variable configuration information to a spreadsheet file.

  1. Right-click a project library and select Export Variables from the shortcut menu.
  2. Enter the name of the .csv spreadsheet file you want to use to export the shared variable configuration.
  3. In a spreadsheet application, open the .csv file you created.
Note (DSC Module) If the description of a shared variable contains line breaks and you export the configuration information for that shared variable to a spreadsheet, the line breaks are converted to spaces. When you import that shared variable configuration information back to a project library, the resulting description contains spaces instead of line breaks.
