Jesse Delk Posted May 3 Posted May 3 Anyway to transfer only select comics from one database to another.
Steven L. Dasinger Posted May 3 Posted May 3 Depending on your version, you can Export, Import data. Check under menu item File to see if Import and/or Export are available or grayed out.
Jesse Delk Posted May 3 Author Posted May 3 In case export/import was the answer, I started messing with that. I must be doing something wrong. Sometimes if I export a comic with price $50 after import its different.
Steven L. Dasinger Posted May 3 Posted May 3 Before starting, make sure you run the most current Content Update on both databases. This will get them in 'sync' so they have the same Title/issues in both. If you just want to export select issues, if you can 'Mark' them it will make the process easier. Since I don't know anything about what you are trying do, it is hard to give target directions. If you can do a Find to return just the issues you want, Select all rows (CTRL+A), right-click and select Mark. Start an export At the bottom check 'Export only marked items' and 'Include field headers, and set Item Separator to TAB. At a minimum, select fields Title Item # Condition Qty In Stock After that you can select other columns (like Price). then click Export and give the file a name. Go to the other database and select Import. Select the file you created. Make sure the 'Item Separator' is set to TAB. Since you selected 'Include Field Headers' everything should be lined up and ready. Click the Import button. NOTE: There may be some clean up needed but I haven't done this process in quite a while and that may have been addressed.
