Great thanx Bruce.[:)]

Damien or Floyd, I've just remembered to mention something I see in Tracker as the Allied player.  Air groups that I have withdrawn show up on the Alerts page each turn.  They are listed as location "Unknown Base" or something similar.  Is this something you have already seen and corrected?  I believe I'm using the most recent Tracker build that you have released (pre beta patch release of AE also.)  If this is a new one, let me know, and I'll provide exact version numbers, a screen shot, and a save if you need them to debug.

Hi Maarten,

Now that I look at this for the first time, it appears that there is no specific functionality to dump a csv file containing only the information shown in the sample screen I supplied above. I will delve a bit deeper into this for you and see if their is an alternative data dump that could be used.

Back in a bit.

I thought I had them all - I'd better check again. The other way with this screen is to select all from the table ctrl+c (copy) and then in xls ctrl+v (paste)

Doesn't work with some screens but will with this one.

Same in my (previous) game. I think i removed the group BEFORE i saved the turn to import into Tracker.
Since that i get each turn a message in "alerts".

OK - here you go this will give you the info.

I better check all of these again before next release + add Res screen.

Cheers

So Damian when i got a question like this i should first look?
Are you trying to say this?
Allright.

NO Maarten, that is not what Damian said at all [;)]

He actually was stating that he needs to check what reports are currently available in the export functionality and ensure that it is a complete set.

Allright Bruce.

Okay, this will be in the next release.

Is there anything else we may have left out of the export function?

Floyd

I don't know if you could include this idea in the next release (if you wish to use it at all that is).

It would be great to have a supplemental panel where one can select which columns are exported.

That's a bit harder - and it's prettty easy to delete columns in Excel/Calc...

That I know....

Good programmers are naturally lazy..... [;)]

Not impossible though, a few radio buttons and a dynamically constructed select statement.


EDIT:

It has just occurred to me that one of these sentences is ambiguous....
I am not suggesting anybody other than myself is lazy.....

I think of myself less as "lazy" and more as "globally efficient". Doing this in the program would take a few hundred lines of code (there are a lot of classes that need to pass information around here), while the good people at Microsoft and OpenOffice.org made it just a few mouse clicks to hide or remove colums.

Hahaaa....

Brilliant answer...

OK... I will behave myself now!!

Trying to get a new PBEM going but I don't seem to get tracker back in working order.

In my old install tracker loads fine, but refuses to load the new turn 1, saying " A later turn has been loaded already" . Any easy fix for this?

Also tried a fresh install, but got the following:

HELP!

This is as simple problem I believe.

In case you are not aware, the trackerdb files can only contain one game at a time.
To start a new game, you need to make copies of files trackerdb.script, trackerdb.properties, trackerdb.data and trackerdb.backup (assuming the current data files are still of some value).

Then delete the file trackerdb.script and trackerdb.data and trackerdb.backup.
Update the trackerdp.properties file with the correct information.

Start the game and set up the game. Just getting the first turn started is sufficient and then save it to the save file number mentioned in the trackerdb.properties file with the correct password.

Once that is all done, restart tracker and it should build a nice clean database for you with the first turn data already loaded.
Then import the regional definitions of your choice and you are ready to go.
