The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I never got to the selecting tab delimited stage-- excel just refused to recognize either the text or the xml file.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Is that Excel on a Mac you're opening it with? Or on the PC? And when you say don't recognise -- you mean you couldn't select it to open, or you selected it to open and it crapped out?

You wouldn't happen to remember an error message, wouldja? Admittedly I've never exported from iTunes on a Mac, but it's rude if it gives you a substantially different format from on the PC.

Nope, afraid not.

Perkins, I just did it using excel on my mac. It gave me a warning but I hit okay and it was fine. I did the export using unicode text. If you wanna export it and shoot it over to me, I can send you back an excel file.

Ooh, that would be cool. I'll have to give you my work email, since that's where I have the excell.

Thanks!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Anyone know anything about Serial ATA hard drives? I just bought a pair of 300GB OEM drives cheap, not realizing that the cables (power and data) are totally different from older IDE drives. I see cables available on Newegg, but I'm not 100% sure what I need.

Most importantly, the cables for sale don't have a head in the middle and the end of the cable like my old HD cables have. But I know there must be a way to get two drives connected to a single head on the MB. How? Help?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Does your MB support serial ATA?
