PostPosted: Mon Aug 27, 2007 4:11 pm    Post subject: Exporting my NeoOffice database

I have set up a NeoOffice database with over 2500 records and it is saved in an .odb format. Is there a way to save or export it in a another format that would be recognized by Filemaker Pro?

From the NeoOffice Help:

"Exporting data from Base

You copy a table from Base to a new Calc sheet, then you can save or export the data to any file format that Calc supports.

1. Open the database file that contains the database table to be exported. Click Tables to view the tables, or click Queries to view the queries.
2. Choose File - New - Spreadsheet.
3. In the Base window, right-click the name of the table to export. Choose Copy from the context menu.
4. Click cell A1 in the new Calc window, then choose Edit - Paste.

Now you can save or export the data to many file types."

FileMaker can import MS Excel (.xls), comma-separated (.csv), Data Interchange Format (.dif), dBase (.dbf) and SYLK (.slk) files - all these formats may be chosen when saving a Calc document.
