[BaseCamp] Can I Copy/Paste Route "Properties" ?

[Greg Horodeck]

Perhaps you can get the information you want by exporting the route to a csv
file. In Windows, make sure your route is selected, go to the File menu,
choose Export, Export Selection, tell it where you want the exported file
put and specify csv as the type to be saved.

The data you want is all there. It may not be exactly in the form you want
but if you know Excel, you should be able to manipulate the data to put it
in the form you want. Certainly a macro could be created to automate the
isolation and reformatting of the data (I can provide help). Note, you will
need to make sure that for each waypoint in the route, you explicitly check
the Arrival and/or the Departure box. Waypoints with unchecked boxes will
not export Arrival/Departure information.

Look in the rtept section of the exported file for the data you want.

The date and time will be concatenated together in one cell and it is
expressed in Zulu time, not local time for the waypoint. Which may be a
positive, keeping a rally clock on Zulu and not having to do possible error
prone calculations to convert to local time.

Subject: [BaseCamp] Can I Copy/Paste Route "Properties" ?

Hi all, not sure I'm doing this right so feel free to flog me properly for
any mistakes I make.

I'm just getting into using BC (still prefer S&T, but starting to come
around) and I was wondering if there's any way to copy the information from
a route "Properties" tab to say a word document or text file for printing.

What I want is my "rundown" sheet which has the bonus code in the order of
collection and the arrival time at that bonus, but I don't want all the turn
directions. When I try to copy the data it selects all the information in a
single box, but when I paste it I only get the code, and not anything else.
At a minimum I need the code and arrival time .

I'm sure I'll have more questions in the coming months, but you BC die-hards
will be happy to hear I am actually starting to like BC. It's still missing
a few things IMHO but I am working to find ways around that.
