 HText file import
Is there a bug in the text-file import? I can select a file by clicking the Source File button, but the convert button is still disabled after selecting a file. When it is working: Is it possible to select and convert multiple files?

The output file must be specified before conversion can begin. Multiple text files can be selected using Ctrl in the file selection dialog. Each file will be imported as a separate song.

I have just started trialling you program yesterday and have had it throw up an error which has required it to close and restart. Not just once, but several times. If we are to use the program publicly then this sort of thing would be nost embarrassing. In addition, I am having extreme difficulty with import. First it doe not handle text files at all well and finally when I managed to save the file, part of the first verse had disappeared. Second, i can not delete the song from the song list pane, even though i have deleted it from the Songview (ohp) file area. After several hours of trying to import ONE song and having no success I am wondering if the instructions in the help file, which was printed out to make it easier to follow, are incomplete. for example, although the imported files are saved in the Songview folder how do I get them into a list. the list of songs already existing is an ohp file and the one i sort of added also shows as an ohp file, it does not allow me to show the title in the song tree

The latest Songview version has eliminated all the bugs I am aware of. To import songs into an existing file, choose the existing file as the import destination and use the option to append the files to the song. Alternatively Song Manager (on the file menu) can be used to copy songs from one file into another.
