Hi Nicole, I don't know what all those numbers mean myself, but my guess is that it is some kind of a signature to identify which database to use when encountering certain situations. For example, when you are trying to enter an address, KeySoft would tell KeyList to find the Addres List.cdb (CDB is a compact databawe used by Pocket PC devices) and will lok for this "24" to see if it is the correct one. CSV stands for "Comma Separated Values," a way of separating entries using comma (m) character. For example, a typic`al SCV file looks like this: "Address", "555 vNorth ST." "City", Springfield" "Phone", "555-1234"
I used fictional address to demonstrate the layout of the file. You can save an excel spreadsheet (.xls file as csv and import it onto your BrailleNote. I haven't performed extensive tests on this myself. Cheers, Joseph -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nicole B. Torcolini Sent: Saturday, December 29, 2007 7:02 PM To: Braillenote List Subject: [Braillenote] The Mystery Number and csv I have two questions. I am running a BrailleNote BT with 6.11. First, does anyone know what the number on the second line of a database definition file is supposed to mean? I know it means something because it is 24 for the address list, 39 for the email folders, and 48 for the directory of email accounts. Second, I tried the database conversion feature on the bn. Going into csv works fine and bringing a unmodified csv file produced by the bn back to a database works, but it does not take it if I try to add an entry to the csv file. I cannot find anything about this in the user's guide. By the way, what does csv stand for? Thanks ahead of time, Nicole ___ Replies to this message will go directly to the sender.
