Be able to output point configuration from a list of tags that is already in Excel

For example, after exporting the stale/bad tag list from SMT, use PI Builder to pull out the instrument tag and location 1-5 information to only edit and check the points on that list. Some times, not all points from a point source is having an issue.

    This capability is already in the current version of PI Builder (2018 SP2). Here's what you need to do: 1) Assuming you have the list of PI Points of interest, make sure the first column (Selected(x)) has a "x" in it. 2) Select the "Headers" icon from the Excel ribbon and choose the tag attributes that you want. In your example, you would choose instrument tag and location 1-5. You should now see new column headings in your spreadsheet. 3) Select the "Retrieve" icon and instrument tag and location 1-5 would be populated.
