Have any of you techies out there figured out how to get URp data into IQ, i.e. items & details? Thanks.

URp uses RTF for the details pane. IQ uses HTML and the two formats are quite “incompatible”. There are converters available, but output is not excellent.

I can write a quick importer (that would use URp XML - OML format) to import the document outline.

For the Details content, a few options:
1- If RTF formatting is not important, the importer will put the plain text in the HTML pane
2- If RTF is important, the importer will not import the plain text, but you’ll need to open each generated .rtf file in WordPad and drag it to the corresponding IQ item HTML pane.

As I’m in the process of finalizing a new beta version, if you (and others) would like this feature, I can include it.

I don’t know about anyone else but I would find this extremely useful.

A vote for this from me as well.

In fact it is this kind of feature (import/export) that for me can make or break the use of a new program as usually much of the information I would like to enter into it has already been organised in another.
