47.2 Tree Workbook

You can quickly export the model inputs described in the previous sections (variables, trackers, distributions and tables) via a Tree Workbook.

To create a Tree Workbook:

  • In Excel, choose the Add-ins ribbon then choose TreeAge Eclipse > Create Tree Workbook from the Excel menu.

A new Excel workbook will be created with a separate worksheet for each model input (variable list, tracker list, distribution list and each table). These model input worksheets are the same as described previously for variables, trackers, distributions and tables. Additional worksheets are described within this section.

The Tree Control worksheet is used to either open or save the model associated with the Tree Workbook. You can change the name of the tree and save the model in a separate document.

If you have different data scenarios you want to save for the same model. You can save multiple Tree Workbooks for the model. Then, you can use the Tree Workbook to update the model's data for that specific data scenario.

Exporting analysis output

The Excel module also allows exporting analysis outputs to Excel. The Open in New Excel Spreadsheet icon is frequently enabled for graphical and text output. When this icon is enabled at the top right of the output, you can use it to export the results to Excel.
