PRJ98: Unit of Time Included when Pasting Timescaled Work (175008)

WORKAROUND

To work around this behavior, use either of the following methods:

Method 1: Run the Analyze_TimeScaled_Data macro

To export the timescaled data to Microsoft Excel without the unit of time, run the Analyze_TimeScaled_Data macro. This macro will export cost, work, and earned value to Microsoft Excel. The macro will prompt you to select the data, the timeframe, and the time you want to export. To run this macro, follow these steps:

1. On the Tools menu, point to Macro, and then click Macros.
2. In the Macro Name list, select the Analyze_TimeScaled_Data macro and click Run.

Method 2: Paste the information in Microsoft Excel and run a custom macro

Paste the values into Microsoft Excel and then remove the unit of time programmatically.

1. Open a module sheet in the Microsoft Excel workbook where you pasted the data and then enter the following code:

        Sub DeleteUnits()
            s = Selection.Address
            For Each r In ActiveSheet.Range(s)
               If Len(r.Value) > 0 Then
                  r.Value = Val(Left(r.Value, Len(r.Value) - 1))
               End If
            Next
         End Sub
   						

2. Run the macro while the sheet where you pasted the data is visible. The time units will be removed.
