Hi there.
When Loggernet is downloading data from the logger on a schedule it stores them to a file in ascii format (TOA5).
Now if I upload a new program with only slight changes to the logger Loggernet does start a new file with exactly the same name (as per schedule rules) and it seems to make a 'backup' of the former ascii files.
For example:
- [measurements_2011-02.dat] is being downloaded all the time and data appended
- now a new program is uploaded to the logger
- old [measurements_2011-02.dat] becomes [measurements_2011-02.dat.backup]
-a new and fresh [measurements_2011-02.dat] is being stored to from now on
The problem for me now is, that the stuff in the backup file did lose it's ascii formating, except for the header which still is in plain text, but not the data.
Any way to convert this back to the former ascii file?
Tried so far:
- CardConvert + renamed the backup file to [measurements_2011-02.BIN.dat] - failed to load
Cheers

found a workaround for this:
- open 'View Pro'
- set file type to *.*
- load the data
- select area of data you're interested in (PgUP/PgDN works for large datasets!)
- use [Copy to Clipboard] from 'Edit' menu
- paste in notepad and save as *.txt
- columns are then delimited by [Tab] (for importing)
