Happy New Year!
The result of Part 1 was a list of XER files, all of which were in one folder. It is not clear from where in the Enterprise Project Structure (EPS) that each file belonged.
Perhaps you would like to create a hierarchy of folders similar to the project screen in P6?
I have modified my original Python script to build out a folder structure that is similar to the EPS. I have not been able to find all levels of the hierarchy within the P6 database, but I was able to get most of the levels represented.

The result of running this script should be a folder structure with names that are similar to the headings in the EPS. The exported files will be put into these folders. Strange characters in the names may need to be escaped or replaced (as is done above in the SQL query).
