Thanks a lot for this. It sounds like a potentially workable way to export much of the information. Now I'd just like to figure out a credible way to import. Maybe I need to learn something about .DBF and .DBT files? A combination of that knowledge and an Excel macro might just do it.

Turn on the top of block, then get the lst day you want to include. Be sure to put the bottom block marker in the last appointment. copy the block to keyboard. make text file, paste the clipboard in. You may need to insert linebreaks but all your appointments are safe. ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: "Braille Note Mailing List" <[email protected] Date sent: Tue, 18 May 2010 15:05:42 -0400 Subject: [Braillenote] Is There Any Import/Export Capability in theBrailleNote Planner? Hi all, I have read that the BrailleNote planner is compatible with Microsoft Outlook, but, other than that, is there any compatibility between the planner and software for the PC? I have used the Datebook.brl file on the Braille Lite for years, and that file is a generic braille document with a block paragraph for each date. I was wondering if there's any reasonable way to exchange data between the BrailleNote planner and a file like my old Datebook.brl. I like the quick date access in the planner, but I sort of don't want to totally lose the possibility of exporting to the Braille Lite if my Apex needs to go in for repairs or something. Has anybody done any experimenting with this?
