How do I create a comprehensive list of Alpha Codes? I am transitioning to OpenRoads. The Alpha Codes that my surveyor currently uses in the field does not match the Alpha Codes set in my DOT delivered workspace. I would like to create a list with the description and corresponding Alpha Code such as this: EXISTING FL OF CONCRETE PIPE...………. EXFLRCP. Is there a way to do this?
Are you creating the list from ORD or previous software, which is what?
Yes, I would like to create the list from ORD. I can drill down in the ORD Explorer and find each individual Alpha code, but I was wondering if there is a way to create a list of these. It would be very time consuming to click on each feature definition, display the properties, and write the Alpha Code.
See the attached PDF for the steps I used to create the spreadsheet.

Note that the variable being created is a hidden variable because it starts with an underscore. There is even a variable that when used makes hidden variables visible. As someone performing administrative tasks I’d recommend defining it too. Sorry but I’m not at a PC so it’s not easy for me to list it for you.

_USTN_DISPLAYALLCFGVARS = 1 - to display all configuration variables.
What is the zone in reference to a part of feature definitions export? Would I need to fill this in with adding new alpha codes?
