Hi Maarten van der Waal, have you tried using SysExporter tool. It's a freeware that do Wondors in capturing List View/Combo View into any format you want. The tool is available at www.nirsoft.net/.../sysexp.html. I hope it helps what you are looking for.

Regards,

Tariq, thanks for your answer.
I downloaded the tool and tried it. It seems only to show the windows elements on a screen. I could not find information existing is a (fhx or xml) file.
So still looking for a tool for the class referece list...

In reply to Maarten van der Waal:

Hi Maarten,
Just use the references in DeltaV explorer, open sysexporter refresh the data while references pane in DeltaV explorer is still open. Copy the data in sysexporter (Ctrl-C) and paste it in excel. And you have your list.

In reply to Pieter Degier:

Tariq and Pieter: thank you for your 'common' effort.

Yesterday I used the sysexp-x64 and did not find any information in the windows.
Today I also tried the sysexp (x32?) and the trick works.
It is a workaround and relative much work, but much better than using the print option in the reference window.

Still I have the opinion that the parent class should be an option in the bulkexport list - next to the SubType.

In reply to Maarten van der Waal:

Suggest you send a request for this functionality to be added to UDEP at www.userideas-emerson.com/

In reply to Matt Stoner:

Good idea, Matt! After your suggestion I just did.

I'm still trying to understand why this isn't a thing yet...

In reply to dls526:

You can use Power BI to generate a high overview of class usage counts from a FHX as shown in the picture with output chart on left and the configuration on the right.

I just need this level of detail so I haven't done any more to see if more things can be done with it but I suspect you probably can.

Note that this won't catch non class based modules that may have started from a class.

In reply to Matt Stoner:

Thanks Matt. Never used BI before, but was planning to at some point. Maybe this is the final push I need. I'm assuming this is all home-grown.

In reply to Matt Stoner:

I presume FHX is converted to XML using FhxToXml2005.exe utility before it is fed in to Power BI. Is that a correct presumption?

In reply to Virginijus Vaiciulis:

I did this a couple years ago and I did do that. Forgot to mention that piece so thanks for asking and reminding me.
