Things to OF importer Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes

Sure!

1 - Back up your things database and back up your OF database
2 - Open both applications
3 - In OF revert back to the default database (so you can see exactly what my script imports)
4 - Run the script and see what happens (there are some great tutorals on the web for learning how to run and edit an apple script if you need help in that area)

My script imports your projects across. It moves tasks inside of areas without projects, to an OF project named after the Area (thanks Kimomni). It does not put the projects inside an area folder (this would be nice). It looks for tags with an @ in front like @Home and @Mac and assigns a context in OF. In all it should do most of the work for you.

Once you have a good feel from steps 1-4 above restore your old OF database and run the script again to add your Things data to any existing OF data you have.

Hope this helps. Let me know how it goes.
Ab
