There was a time around the time of the Win 98 Excel I knew how to parse. Seems as though you could just copy and paste the entire document from Word or Notepad into Excel and parse it into what you want. Have not done it for years. -----Original Message----- From: pianotech-bounces at ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces at ptg.org] On Behalf Of David Love Sent: Wednesday, July 06, 2011 4:53 PM To: pianotech at ptg.org Subject: Re: [pianotech] Steinway D scale I couldn't open the DBF file at all originally. The copy to the email was fine and I just transferred the data--not hard to interpret the P-Scale abbreviations. But thanks both of you for sending each version.

I sent him an Excel version too, but as a point of even moderate resourcefulness, looking at the Pscale file in notepad, it's not tough to figure out what's note#, what's length, and the wire gauge. Ten minutes writing it down, and you have it in your format of choice. You guys get locked out too easily. <G> Ron N
