 | Fergus Lynch | flynch@alternativenetworks.com | Question | Windows | V2.7.1-200 | Re: Converting dates from an Excel import into ELOG |
| Fergus Lynch wrote: |

Hi,
I'm importing an Excel spreadsheet into ELOG through CSV format. All working fine apart from dates.
Dates are exporting from Excel in the format "day/month/year" so 1st January 2008 is exported as 01/01/2008 in the CSV.
However all dates are displayed in ELOG as "01/01/1970" regardless of the field content, and looking at the raw ELOG data file dates are displayed as numeric's - so for example 01/01/2008 is "1199188800"
Can you tell me how dates are computed/stored in ELOG so that I can do the necessary conversion.
Many Thanks
Fergus

S'ok - looked up the documentation  and have converted Excel dates to ELOG 'seconds since 01/01/1970' and all has come over fine!
Thanks

Unfortunately this is a limitation of HTML and your browser. Most photograph printing services have the same problem, you can only upload one photo at a time, so they come up with some Java programs you have to run locally to upload sets of photos. Or they have standalone programs, but they only work under Windows. So the only way to ease your pain is if you put your attachments into a single zip file. |

You are missing:
Type Last Edit = datetime
which will tread the "Last Edit" attribute as a date/time combination. Actually it's stored
internally in seconds since Jan 1st 1970, so sorting will work right. The only caveat is that
when you edit an entry, the "Last Edit" is displayed really in seconds since 1970, but I will
fix this in the next release. |

I just fixed this in SVN revision #2010. If you would have filled out which operating system you use
with elog, I could tell you how to upgrade. |

Diogo Alves found a possibility, at least for firefox. Have a look here. |

Have a look at http://midas.psi.ch/elog/userguide.html, under the section "Adding stuff to a logbook". Basically you can write elog:<id>. At the moment, this works however only in the "plain" or "ELCode" encoding. For HTML encoding, I will add this functionality soon.
