What column do you want to add. It can be done as long as there is already a parser for the type of column. In have some notes on how it us done.

Re: Add a choice to the Import -> More Options
Well it came up last week [Sample Ref] and we found an alternative [Surveyors ref I think]. This week I realised I had something that is unlikely to be on the list of more options; Sample Start Time and Sample Duration.
I haven't checked this as I only finished preparing the data yesterday and am away from the office until next week. So it was part need and part curiosity. I have a lot of bat data with times that my prove useful to have for the long term.

Further to Sample Ref & Surveyors ref I would also like Private Location and Private Code to be available.
If you send me the instructions Mike I'll give it a try.

Private Location, Private code, Sample Duration and Sample Start time look as though they are already there, but I haven't checked they work. I don't understand why Sample Ref isn't there, because it is an easy one to set up. It may be there under another name. I will investigate.

Sampel ref doesn't appear to be there. It would be an easy one to set up as it could be based on Private Code and there are no complications. I am not in a postion to look at this immediately, but if you would like to have a go the instruction are at http://www.recorder6.info/page31.html under technical documentation. It would need to use the Text Parser and has no complication regarding the use of look up table, allocations etc.

Thanks Mike sorry I must have been looking at my feet instead of the screen to miss the others. I probably looked in Taxon Occurrence on auto pilot. I'm really looking forward to retiring. Dyslexia a state of my mind.
I'll have a look at that link.
