When importing a file in the 8.2 Beta 2 client I’m not offered the option of Lotus 1-2-3, only Calendar file (.ics), Structured text or Tabular text. Is this a feature or a bug?
Subject: Lotus 123 option should appear in import file into a document
Thanks for the inquiry.
Including Lotus 123, text files, word processing files, HTML files, graphics files, and spreadsheet files are supported in file import into a document that has rich text fields. Please make sure File/Import selected in a document.
Calendar file (.ics), Structured text and Tabular text are supported for file import into the view.
Subject: Lotus 123 option is needed for import into a view
We use this option daily to import data into Notes documents. It is essential that this functionality is restored. Even better if we can import directly from an Excel .xls file too.
Subject: Very unfortunate
I need this funcationality as well. Would prefer an xls import but 123 is fine (can’t believe I still use 123).
I’ve had to drop back to an R7 client (dual install in fact).
Subject: Importing 1-2-3
I just saw the samething, they rolled out 8.5 onto a few of the users machines (don’t give it to the developers) and sure enough when you’re on a view and want to do an import of a 1-2-3 file (wk4) there is no option for this.
Help says it’s there but it’s not on the drop down.
