Title: Exporting my songs for my pda
Post by: dazzle on December 19, 2006, 08:19:08 am

Hi there

I want to export my songs to view on my smartphone.  My database program on my smartphone alows me to import csv, but the only option for exporting is xml?  How can I convert this into a csv format.  I am sure other people would need csv as well.  Can't we have both options available?

Kind Regards

PS thanks for a great program.

Can you further explain what your trying to do? Do you want to copy songs from your library to your phone?

Yes, I have a database program on my phone that alows me to import csv files.  Previous version of MC allowed for exporting to csv, I have been able to import an earlier version of MC withouit a problem.

Many thnaks Dave

You mean just to have a list of all the tracks?

The easiest way is to just do copy and paste - select everything you want to select, do Edit->Copy and then paste it into a spreadsheet...

Be careful about size limits though (I guess somewhere around 32k or 65k probably)

Thanks Rob, that certainly is a work around.  Surely csv could be provided as an export option?

I tried the copy and paste idea but it pastes a bitmap image?  I am sure I am doing something wrong
