Annual WAMUG Christmas Barbecue: Date - Year Amendment 12 December 2010

2010-12-03 Thread Pete Smith
G'day again WAMUGGERS.

Just a reminder: don't forget to plug this into your iCal. (I've adjusted the 
year so that it should plug in correctly. Sorry about that!)

The Annual WAMUG Christmas Barbecue will be held at 12:00 noon on Sunday, 12th 
December 2010 in the grounds of the old Heathcote Hospital, Applecross.

Click the following link to locate the venue in Google Maps:



Where will we be?

If you select the 'Earth' view and zoom in so that the old hospital is very 
clear, you'll see the car park roundabout (brown) with grey car parking off to 
the right and, more importantly, a light coloured footpath heading off to the 
right and circling around the whole hospital. If you set off to the right along 
that path, you'll come to where we were last year just under the trees next to 
the first building (the long skinny one with the three bits jutting out). 
Barring unforeseen circumstances, that's where we'll be.

Considering last year was a scorcher, it's a top spot.

Streetsmart map ref: 402 D4

All offers of help with the preparation will be most welcome.

All meat, condiments and soft drinks will be provided, but please let us know 
by next Tuesday, 7 December if you intend to come along so we can get an idea 
of numbers. This will help immensely in estimating quantities. Entry is free to 
all WAMUG members, but a gold-coin donation by non-members would be welcome.

Just reply to this email if you intend coming.

Regards,

Pete Smith

Re: Address book

2010-12-03 Thread Ronda Brown

Hi Justin,

In AddressBook2CSV Exporter, if you click on the minus ( - ) sign beside 
"Export", 
you can then select what you wish see in the export i.e. email, phones, title, 
addresses. 
But yes, I do agree it doesn't do as good a job as others.

Looking in my Applications folder, I actually found that I had a paid copy of 
"Export Address Book.app, that I must have used ages ago.
Gave it another try and was quite pleased with the result, but I'll give your 
suggestion of 'Address Book Exporter' a try (when I next find time) ;-)

Below are details of 'Export Address Book' which I have used before.
Export Address Book 1.5.3



About Export Address Book:
Can export all the data in your Address Book into a data file. It even 
recognizes fields with self-defined labels. You can choose between various 
export formats, like TSV, CSV, HTML table and adapted vCard (in Address Book, 
you cannot specify which fields to export when you create a vCard - in Export 
Address Book, you can). 

You are able to select which contacts to export, which fields from those 
contacts and how to order them. For later reuse, you can save all of that as a 
template. In Address Book, you can assign self-defined labels to various 
fields. Export Address Book can recognize and export fields with self-defined 
labels. With the built-in Automator action, you can automate exports.



Cheers,
Ronni

Thanks Justin, Ronni,

I used this one: http://gwenhiver.net/address-book-exporter.html
With a cut down set of fields (just the ones needed) it was perfect.

Ronni, I tried the AddressBook2CSV Exporter, but the CSV was unusable.
The multi line fields threw it right off.

Hi Keith - I am writing to you off list (as some of the others have made 
requests to do).  Do you still have a 1Password Licence?  If so I would 
appreciate this.

Not to worry if it has gone.

Many thanks, Peta
