Custom posters data files

I am sure this has been asked a hundred times in the past but by search skill is 0, and I can't find the answer..

If I build a custom subsector in Heaven and Earth, is there a way to export the data file, and then use the customer sector data tools on the Traveller map?

I can edit XML and I know I will need to edit the metadata, but I'd like to edit the systems in HES.

If there is a clear FAQ or post that explains how to do that I'd be very grateful and invite the nice person to share my Carousing 0 skill.
 
I'll have to check, but another option would be to download a sector from the Traveller map then edit that. That way you would be sure to have all the columns and all that area correct. It would be more laborious but H&E is really old and the files it produces will not match the current version.

And...I'll have to see about exporting the H&E files which I've not done but am now interested in. Because you could, if it was somewhat close, probably do a macro in whatever text editor you use to correct all the columns to match the T5 modern sec file format.
