Dear Tellico author,
I hope this is the right e-mail address to ask some questions. When not,
please stop reading and mail me back telling me what to do to put this on the
right place.
I try to import data about a CD collection from an old application (on MS-DOS
6, I didn't found an application like this one until I found Tellico!!). I
generated a CSV file and imported it into Tellico. In general it works, but I
have some questions:
What is the character encoding that Tellico thinks the imported file has, I am
loosing characters like ë â etc.
The data about the different tracks on a CD should go into the table Tracks.
How do I import fields from the CSV into the different rows and columns of
that table. Until now I succeeded only in attaching one CSV column to the
field Tracks and then the first column of the first row of Tracks is filled
from that CSV column.
About de menu where to choose among the different groups you have (left from
the Filter) I am sometimes missing some of the items. I can not exactly
reproduce this, but it seems to happen after I append the import onto an
empty collection.
Thanks in advance for your time taken and I also hope this will add to further
perfection of this wonderful application.
Using Tellico 1.2.7 on KDE 3.5.5 on open SUSE 10.0.
