History Report (spreadsheet) Possible?

I am faced with doing a huge migration, so I am going through history to make sure I capture every change and review it prior to this push.

Is there any way to export a list of the History, preferably to a spreadsheet, to make this task easier?

I thought that selecting History, copying, and pasting would be the answer, and that worked well, but it does not grab the affected programs (path+name) so I'm still looking for the correct answer.

RLS, I don't know if you'l be able to get what you want from that Local history feature in CF Builder/Eclipse. More on that in a moment.

But really, I think you're expecting too much from it. What you'd be better served by would be a version control system (Git, Subversion, CVS, etc.), though I do appreciate that such would only help you going forward. They would not help you capture the history before they were implemented.

As for the Local History feature, do beware of a potential concern, even if somehow you CAN get a listing of all the edits that it tracked: beware that there is a max file size setting, which limits what files are tracked at all with the Local history feature. See Preferences>General>Workspace>Local History

Charlie, thank you, we are moving to a GIT system, but we need to make this final migration first. We are using a subversion system, though, already, and that's the history I'm trying to get. I can grab everything from 1/1/2016 on just fine, but I can't get the actual files involved, with paths, that would make this so much easier.
