I've done this multiple times.  Prepare a spreadsheet (Excel) with all attribute info, convert it to xml within Excel, using xml definition as needed for Windchill, then upload the xml using LoadFromFile from a Windchill shell.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for your reply

Can you give me an example of the format that I need to use for LoadFromFile option ? I have used this for mass upload of documents but wondering should be the format to create and upload attributes with units

Let's take an example :

  

AttributeUnit of measurement
Y01N/mm2
Y02W
Y03N
Y04W/m-K

What is the format that I need to use for this ?

Thanks,

Athmanand

I have a spreadsheet example w/a few hundred attributes used for a client - would have to scrub the proprietary data.

Would you be willing to throw a few bucks my way for it?
