Importing and Exporting files

2.01Why does each application have different formats listed forimport/export?

Some formats are only appropriate for one type of application.For example, NewWrite is text­based, so it's difficult toexport NewWrite files in spreadsheet or graphics formats. Youcan always copy information from one application to another totry to expand your export options.

Why won't some of my files import?

  • The file may not be in a supported format.
  • Try selecting the specific file format instead of choosingAuto Detect.
  • Make sure the file has been saved in the application that generatesfiles of that format (for example, if you think a file is in WordPerfect 5.1 format, try to open and save the file in Word Perfect5.1).
  • If the import process seems to start, then just sits there,make sure you're allowing enough time for the import to complete.For large files, it's not unusual for the import to take severalminutes. We have even seen cases where importing took half anhour.
  • Some imports require large amounts of swap memory space. Tryincreasing the Max File Size in Preferences, NewDeal (or NewDOSor Geos).
