|
|
I'm trying out All My Movies and so far I really like what I see except it won't allow me to export a report to xls because I don't have Excel installed. This is frustrating because I don't use MS Office ... I use Open Office but I have an Excel Viewer installed also. It would be nice to just do an xls export, bring it into either the viewer or an Open Office spreadsheet, and then print out a report of my movies...
Using a text output just creates a jumble of data and the html output lists too much stuff for a simple list of my collection.
Other than that glitch .. I'd seriously consider buying this program because everything else is great! |

| I am sorry, we are using MS Excel COM-object to produce the export, therefore we can't export without Excel installed, sorry |

A program such as this needs to be flexible. there is no reason not to
be able to allow user to save to any format they choose.
this needs to be fixed. you missing out on a huge userbase by ignoring
those that use Openoffice. which is rapidly overtaking ms office.
the company that I work for switched over 2000 workstation to OpenOffice and StarOffice.
this needs to be changed.
thankyou. |
