Export

The Export feature uses the Memo Pad to let you transfer your data to a word processor or spreadsheet application to further analyze your call records or to print out a record of them.

To Export the information, choose "Export" from the Options menu in the list view. You will see the following screen.

Export Screen

Choose the format for the export from the Format buttons. The "Text" format separates fields with a tab character, and each record is separated with a return. This is a good choice for exporting to a word processor. The "CSV" format separates fields with a comma and each record with a return. This is a good choice for exporting to a spreadsheet.

You can export all your data, or only the data that appears in the list with the current type, program and year selections. Select which one you want and tap the "Export" button.

After you export, the data will appear in the Unfiled category in the Memo Pad. To get this information to your desktop, you must first put your PalmPilot organizer in its cradle and press the HotSync button. After HotSyncing, find the information in the Memo Pad, and copy and paste it to the program of your choice.

If you are pasting to a spreadsheet program like Microsoft Excel, you may have to set the program up to correctly interpret the tab or comma separated information. See your user manual for information on converting text to columns in your spreadsheet application.
