Try using Qshow.  There are some elementary reporting formats available.
(sorry about the pun).  Even if you create a flat file using Qshow you can
then write either a quiz program or something in Excel to pull out the data
you need and put it into columns for Excel.

Thank you,

Hello,

 

We about 6000 elements in a OpenVMS powerhouse dictionary and would like
to list the element with description in an excel spreadsheet. 

 

Does anyone have a utility to take PDL( specifically elements) and
produce a CSV format?  

 

So for example 

 

Input 

 

Element ACCPAC_SIN_FIRST3                CHARACTER Size 5
&

  Default Item Datatype CHARACTER SIZE 5
&

  Description "First 3 digits of the Social Insurance Number from the
" &

              "Accounts Receivable. Separately contained in the AR.
" &

 

 

Output like...

 

ACCPAC_SIN_FIRST3                

CHARACTER Size 5                    

First 3 digits of the Social Insurance Number from the Accounts
Receivable. Separately contained in the AR.             

 

Alternative may be access to the metadata structures but I am not sure
if that access is available. 

 

Thanks in advanced.

Paul
