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

[Troy Martin]

Thanks Greg, that's a good way.

I just tested it out and yeah, the information is there for only the ones I
had "arrival time" checked. Interestingly though it gave me the times in
Zulu time (GMT) rather than the zone I have it in BC. Like you said though,
that's easily remedied.

I can handle all the excel stuff, but if I have anymore questions about
this method or need to bounce an idea off someone I'll let you know.

Thank you,
Troy
