This is the only record of members we have. Does anyone know a sensible way of getting these records off the computer and onto Windows Vista. I have tried simply copying them to a disc but can't get any sense out of it. I could, of course simple print the list but I'm trying to avoid retyping 460 names and addresses etc. Graham New 2007-12-10T16:36:54+00:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/55#203 Mark Ford info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ (via Mark Ford) Euan Williams says: why not use Omnis on your Mac natively? Somewhere I have an Omnis installer which worked under ?10.3, and was free via a Mac magazine. Contact me euan.williams@wamug.org.uk. Most of these databases can "export" their info via "comma separated values" or "Tab delimited Fields". so you ought to be able to transfer it ok. 2007-12-10T19:55:16+00:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/55#206 Graham New info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Euan, Thanks for coming back to me. Fraid some of the jargon defeated me! What does 'natively' mean (going native?) and the CSV and TDF hmmm! Anyway, here's my e.mail : gjnew@madasafish.com; Phone 02102 740425 Many thanks Graham
