Importing CSV #11

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Importing CSV file from other password manager 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Full importing of back-up file.  I see this instead: "First line is missing
fields."

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.2.3 on Android

Please provide any additional information below.
It would be nice if there was a help file on program or even a web site to
visit for help.

I desperately need a password manager and was really excited to finally see
this.  But I am very disappointed that I am having trouble importing my 241
old entries.

Sincerely,

Ty

Yes, we need some better docs.   Create a password or two first.  Then perform 
an
"Export".   That will create "passwordsafe.csv" on the SDcard.   Connect your 
USB to
the computer and open that file with Notepad or Excel.   Use that CSV as the 
basis of
your file.

Basically the error is a result of the first line not being exactly the 
following:

   "Category","Description","Website","Username","Password","Notes"

The point is that the import requires a very specific set of columns.  It's not
terribly flexible.
