Import from CSV file

Post by DeepEyes »

Hi

Excellent program. Just brought it and love it. For that past few years I have used my own program that saves its data is .csv format. With a quick script i converted it to the same format you export .csv files as. Is there anyway to import the .csv?

Hi

Thank you! There is unfortunately no general csv import. But if you have Microsoft Access you can open the logbook file and import the csv data or write a VBA script to import your original data. If you don't have you can send me the converted csv file and I can try to import it for you.

Brilliant

This is easily the best divelog for the computer out there. Did as you suggested, small vb script. Works brilliantly. Thanks.

Yes it is, DeepEyes. Before I bought it, I grilled Sven on making sure he would stick with the Access database because as long as you can manipulate your data directly you can work around any problem or limitation. You also won't find many programs where the author will offer to personally help with a custom solution.
