Importing text files from OceanLog software for Atom 2

I recently purchased your upgrade. I was looking forward to it and it looks great. I want to migrate all my old dives from the Oceanic Oceanlog software. But I am having trouble importing the text files exported by the program. I have tried exporting the files from the Oceanic program as comma, tab, and semi-colon delimited. Nothing seems to work. It imports about 20 of approximately 110 files. Those few files that it does import do not contain dates or anything useful. I have looked at the text files and they seem to have plenty of info in them. I have attached the file.

You emailed this to me also and I replied there.

For others reading, MacDive does not currently support manually entered dives from Oceanlog. I will add support for this in a later patch.

Thanks your help. I believe the problem had t do with the version of the Oceanic software I was using. I downloaded the latest version and it exports and the files. However, unlike before, each dive is a separate text file. They seem to import properly.

I am pleased not to have to use the Windows computer or program any longer.

Thanks again.
