Project Log

When you export a project log, what kind of file is it? How do you read it?

Most logs are text or xml. Just open with TextEdit / Notepad (for example).

The project log is exported as a CSV file - so it can be imported into a database or a spreadsheet easily for pretty-printing.

Pretty much, when in doubt about any file, trying with TextEdit can't hurt anything... if it is gibberish, just close it.

Was able to open the Project Log with someting called the XPSViewer.exe
Is that something that was installed with the BIM Server ?
The Project Log opened with Notepad but was not very readable.
It also opend with Microsoft Word.
