Hi Doug,<br>
If I understand correctly your "issue" looking at the video, there
is probably a misunderstanding about how csv / vector layers /
reprojection work.<br>
<br>
A GIS vector layer stores information about the features geometries
(the coordinates of each point or vertex) and the features
alphanumeric attributes (the fields and their values).<br>
<br>
A csv file stores alphanumeric attributes.<br>
<br>
When you import the csv file in QGIS , since some fields contain
values representing the coordinates of a point, it becomes a vector
layer in which the features geometries are created, on importing,
from the values (the coordinates) contained in such fields and the
features attributes are the same attributes stored in the csv file.<br>
<br>
Reprojecting a vector layer from a CRS to another one only changes
the features geometries and not the features attributes.<br>
<br>
Exporting a vector layer (with default options) to a csv file only
saves its alphanumeric attributes.<br>
<br>
Does this make sense to you?<br>
<br>
Do you need to transform the coordinates values relative to a CRS
stored in the EAST and NORTH fields of your csv file to the
coordinates values relative to another CRS and update your EAST and
NORTH fields or add new fields with the new values and save it as
another csv file?<br>
<br>
There various ways to obtain the some result.<br>
<br>
For example:<br>
- you can select the GEOMETRY: AS_XY layer option in order to add X
an Y fields to the exported CSV in which the coordinates values are
stored relative to the CRS set in the CRT option.<br>
- or you can reproject the layer (Processing tool: "Reproject
layer") and than use the Field Calculator to add new field or
updated the EAST and NORTH fields with the new coordinates of the
points and then save the layer to a CSV file with the default
options.<br>
- or you can use the Processing tool "Add X/Y fields to layer" to
add X and Y fields with the coordinates values relative to the
desired CRS and then save the layer to a CSV file with the default
options.<br>
<br>
Regards.<br>
<br>
