BookPedia

Post by Ricki »

Hi,
I am considering to use Bookpedia on my Mac. I have an excel list with more than 450 books with Title, Author, Genre and comments in separate columns which I would like to import to avoid retyping all. Is this possible and where can I find a description.

Thanks
Ricki

Sure, you can import a tab or comma delimited (CSV) file into Bookpedia. You will find more information about how to proceed in the online Help documentation.

Thanks Nora, however this does not work.
I exported the Excel file to csv and when importing to Bookpedia all fields are shown in one line so that I can not assign the categories. :roll:

Have you tried tab delimited format? If that doesn't work either, email me the file please so I can take a look at it here. You'll find our email on the Support page.
