I have a full calender of clients on my palm and I would like to transfer the info to Excel so I can figure out who paid how much over the year. The palm calender allows me to export to a database file but I don't know how to tranfer the database info into an excel spreadsheet.

Any help on exporting the calender to excel or text is needed. I need the following information from each entry as a minimum, Date & Client name.
 
Excel can read a lot of formats. I tried to export from the Palm software, but wasn't able to choose one of Excel's known formats. I was hoping we'd see a comma delimited or a tab delimited file, but no luck. In Excel, you might try the following: Click on "Data", then "Import External Data", then "Import Data". When the dialog opens, try using "Files of Type" and pick something close to what you might have. Dunno, I can't seem to find anything compatible with Excel.
