Export database for use in other apps?

[dave]

Just another wish: Would it be possible to export the databases (schedule, task, etc) in a format such that they can be used in other PIM apps, in particular those on PDAs (palm, windows mobile, iphone)? As a PDA (Handera 330, b&w rules!) user, this would become yet another killer feature...

[dennisV]

Yes, certainly. There are more export options coming soon!

If you know, can you please tell me what formats you need, so that I could investigate and possibly add them to SDS (if they aren't already planned)?

Hello,

maybe it is off topic, but it would be fine to export the life factor data in a csv-file.

Best regards

No, it's not off topic. I'll add that in, thanks!

New user here. Like the program but I absolutely must be able to bring the text into Word about once a month. I really don't want to copy/paste every individual entry. The export tool is not working.

More particularly I cannot get your program to export all diary entries. It exports the most recent one (in this case Jan 12) only. I've selected "Export all entries" instead of the default "Export only selected entries" , and tried it several times.

Please advise. Thank you.

I've just tried and exporting selected and all items works ok here. Is your exported file large in size or small? Does exporting selected entries work?

[David Kropp]

Export only works for a single, selected entry. Multiple selected entries yield only the first in the series of selected dates. Choosing "All entries" when exporting yields only the first date.

Possibly related question: the help menu still has a "register" choice, as if I haven't registered yet, which I have. Could part of this program think I'm not registered and is therefore not giving me access to functions "for registered use" only?

Otherwise I have no idea what the problem might be.

Are you using MS Word to view the exported file or some other program?

Also, are you using the latest version (4.4.6.1) and which edition?

Is your diary view sorted/grouped in any way, if yes, can you please tell me in which way?

The trial versions are fully functional and the Register menu item is not removed because you may wish to upgrade to a different edition and there needs to be a way to enter a key. Although I could hide it in the Medical edition because there's nowhere to upgrade to from there.

Hello,

thanks for this thread! I found the menu-item "export". I am using version 4.4.6.1. The export of diary entries works fine. I am using wordpad to open and view the exported rtf-file. I tried the function with grouping and filtering entries.

Regards

Is there an option or way of adding a medical dictionary to the software like I added to md word, that would be a great option if not there and to be able to edit added words to your dictionary or delete words - thanks
