I can now successfully bulk import song data into Natural Music from Rivendell (Cart Data Dump csv) thanks to the Jamie Dominey technique below.  It seems to work 100%.

Thanks Jamie!

I've used the Cart Data Dump (csv) to do this.  The only issue is that the csv file that RDLibrary produces and the csv file that Natural Music expects don't seem to be compatible.  My work around for this is to use Google Sheets.  I upload the file that RdLibrary produces and load it with Google Sheets.  I don't make any changes to the file.  I just select file, download and download it as a csv.  The downloaded file seems to then work fine.

There seem to be a few Natural Music software users on the list, so perhaps you can help?

Been using Rivendell and Natural Log for quite a few years, now we have purchased Natural Music. I'm trying to work out how to import music data into NM5, to reduce manual data entry.

RDLibrary gives me the option to generate 4 kinds of report. Cart Report, Cut Report, Cart Data Dump, Cart Data Dump (csv). Which one should I use?

I have tried using Cart Data Dump with the NM5 filter Text File Pipe-Delimited.  It works for the first song on the list, but when I press "next song" I get the error message /End of file has been reached./

So how do you Natural Music experts do it?


Thanks
