Trying to import an NGS datasheet to TBC it locks up every time, anyone else run into this? I like the program but dang I'm about to put a fist through it some days!

I haven't had any trouble with datasheets (yet), but I'm having trouble when importing a particular DC file. I successfully imported it into a project prior to upgrading from 2.50 to 2.60, but now it gets almost all the way in and then generates an unhandled exception.

Trimble beta-testing program

You guys may not have realized this, but you are part of Trimble's beta-testing program.

The way this works, if you discover and are first to report a problem in the software, you are awarded one Beta Test Point.

When you accumulate ten Beta Test Points, you achieve the exalted and venerated status of Master Beta.

Good luck!!

Lol, thanks for the help!

What file type did you import? Help file says htm is supported, yet running the latest and greatest version with all patches htm is not coming up.

That's classic Glen!

And unfortunately, probably not far from the truth.

Have you tried using the internet download routine? It's under the file menu or the third of 3 icons in the menu bar-1st being import, 2nd being export, 3rd being internet download. If you're trying to use CORS data the datasheets come in along with the CORS info.

I've used it to import CORS data and like it, however I was trying to import just the coordinates for a base station. It did start the process and load the page with the sheet, from there it just stopped. I did find a work around, just have to save the NGS datasheet as a .txt file then it could import; not as pretty a solution as the other stuff it has.

Good to know. It's definitely not very intuitive and not an elegant solution although I think that's what I used to do when running TGO about 5 years ago.
