With Rockwell you can easily and quickly develop I/O description in excel using a CSV file.

Does CX Programmer have a similar feature?

Copy from the I/O table - Ctrl C - Ctrl V into excel. The I/O number column will need to be formatted to number. Then just copy oiut of Excel into your symbol table. No need for import and export.

I think @BobB has a typo above, he meant "Copy from the Symbol table..."

Thanks Michael - just back last night from a hard week programming a pile of tricky stuff for NASA - all online - live site. We have to deal with a site wide UPS, rotary converter, mains and 8 generators and not turn the radio telescopes off. Challenging sometimes. There is no N+1 for the UPSs so if something goes wrong with one or more of them we start generators and co-generate with the UPS - or rotary converter if it is in action. I was very mentally tired - 9 hours a day for 4 days - Friday was good they were testing what I programmed. No blackouts and worked perfectly thankfully.
