Okay --> Pierre, I just saw your comment on the wiki page concerning live sync between SQLNotes and Outlook. So I guess I'll have to wait for that.No, a proper Outlook import is also required. I'll check who's to blame (Outlook of SQLNotes) and find a solution.-Armando (December 10, 2007, 11:56 AM)
I think I found a bug:This is now fixed in the daily build
In the Options, where it says "Create backup on program close", I keep changing it to "Yes" and it keeps going back to No. That's why I didn't have backups saved that one time. The setting doesn't stick.-superboyac (December 10, 2007, 11:40 AM)
a notetaker app that opens and structures a series of textfiles in a folder structure. At the moment most people either use software like onenote or evernote to keep all notes together, or plain text files scattered over their system. What I am looking for is to keep the flexibility of plain text (being able to edit/copy/rename/sync the node anywhere), but with some organising features - just some kind of tree structure where every node is an actual plain text file. Not the proprietary or database format used by all notetakers.
make sense, please tell me if I don't-justice (December 04, 2007, 06:02 AM)
(BTW : to be as good a "note taker" as... I don't know... EverNote, it should be extremely fast and painless to insert notes and web clips. Those clips should have an automatic reference (web page address, etc.) "attached" to them, + instant creation date and "automatic title", etc. Everything else is already there in SQLNotes : tagging, etc.)You are quite right that this aspect of SQLNotes does need improvements It should be as simple as: Select text in your browser > right-click > Send as a new item, or > Append to the current item
Am I right in remembering that Conditional Formating is planned as well?Yes, conditional column formatting is planned (red if greater than zero, bold if DueDate < now, etc). In fact, very little is left before implementing it... no user request has been the main reason why it is being pushed forward.-Perry Mowbray (December 04, 2007, 05:34 AM)
maybe a small tutorial on how to import stuff from Outlook (like contacts, tasks and calendar events) and other database would be nice.The wikispace has been updated with detailed step-by-step instructions on how to import data into SQLNotes.-Armando (December 03, 2007, 05:38 PM)
Is there a match properties command for items? For example, if I've formatted one item (background color, font size, font color, etc.) can I copy just the formatting of it to another item? Sort of like a "paste special" command?No but this is a good idea. A format painter-superboyac (December 03, 2007, 05:27 PM)
I think the importing has a small bug in it. I was on step 3, and I went back to click off the 1st line is header box, and when I came back to step 3, all the items in the second column were the same (whereas before, it was supposed all the different song titles, now it was all the same song title, the 1st one in the list).Tried it here a couple of times, and it works... If you can reproduce it, please provide more info and/or a test file.-superboyac (December 03, 2007, 05:11 PM)
PPL, is the grid name limited to 20 characters?For no practical reason, yes, they are limited to 20 chrs. I guess I thought it would be enough
PS, I still can't get the ItemParent field to work for me.-superboyac (December 03, 2007, 04:48 PM)
. Could be changed ...Yeah, but Excel pivots are a pain in the butt to use... the demo makes it look absurdly easy in Quantrix.
In fact I can easily imagine myself accidently creating a million-cell Quantrix spreadsheet.-Ralf Maximus (December 03, 2007, 10:36 AM)
