Copy Microsoft Project Text to Another Program

When you have Microsoft Project text to paste into another program, just copy the text to the Windows Clipboard and paste it into the other program. In most cases, you’ll copy fields from the sheet portion of a view.

Keep in mind that the order and type of information you’re planning to copy must fit exactly into the place you plan to paste it. For example, if a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet consists of the Resource Name and Resource Cost columns, that spreadsheet can accept only text and numerical information in that order.

To copy Microsoft Project text to another program

1. In Microsoft Project, display the view and apply the table containing the text.
2. Select the text you want to copy.
3. Click Copy .
4. Open the destination program and the file into which the Microsoft Project text is to be pasted.
5. In the destination file, select the area where you want to insert the text.
6. Click Paste (or the program’s equivalent command).
