import excel file

Post by BOUCHET »

Hello

I want to import dives from an Excel table. I read FAQ.
I understood that I need to generate a CVS file.
I made an export of a few dives to get the format. There is no "duration" in exporting.

Has anyone ever done this manipulation?

You would be best to create a UDDF or MacDive XML file. You can export one from an existing dive to use as a template. The CSV file MacDive exports cannot be read back in, it isn't a good format. I think duration is there if you enable it (you can choose what to export when you do that). But, as I mentioned, UDDF or MacDive XML are much better formats to use.
