Is it possible to import non-CSDS sequences into CSDS?
I have some material written in SD that I would like to import into CSDS without
having to retype it.
CSDS can import sequences written by SD without any modifications to the SD file. To do so,
- From the main menu, select ' Sequence | Import sequence(s)'.
- In the 'source type' frame, click the 'SD format' option button.
- Use the browse button to specify the location of the SD text file.
- Select the destination sequence database.
- Make sure that the 'Ignore parse problems' check box is checked.
- Click on the 'OK' button to import the sequences.
This function requires that the SD text file contain formfeeds
(ASCII 12 decimal) delimiting the sequences. The header information within each SD
sequence is translated into the appropriate fields within the CSDS sequence database.
Should you have some other type of text file containing square dance choreography that you'd like to import into CSDS, send me a copy as an E-mail attachment, and I see if I can easily modify the program to import it.
