To export the symbol properties you start with the Import/Export button in the PlantExpressTools ribbon.

You select "Project Setup".

And then select "Export".

The next dialog asks you to choose an Excel file.

Next you can decide what you want to export. You can export classes, properties and symbol properties at once.

If you select "Export All", then all classes and/or properties and/or symbol properties are exported.

When you click on the button you can create a new Excel file or overwrite an existing one.

Next we just select "Symbols" and uncheck the other two options.

For this example we choose "Selective Export" and then select the Equipment class only. In general it makes sense to export only the necessary classes to keep the Excel list shorter.

After you click on "Finish" you get a simple message in the command line.
