  1. Open a job in the Manage Estimates screen.
  2. From the Catalog tab or the Estimate tab, click Define on the speedbar and select Globals.
  3. Select the Export Names tab.
  4. For each Export code, enter a descriptive name. By default, the Export codes are named Export1 through Export 6.
    Note: If you want to remove an Export code from the Catalog or Estimate tab, delete the Export code name from the field. This will remove it from all parts of the window, including column views.
