DJTauntonJams 0 Posted June 13, 2009 Report Share Posted June 13, 2009 In a previous post, I mentioned I was looking for karaoke tracks. I have now found them and dutifully typed them all up! However, on presenting them to my business partner, he scoulded me and asked why it wasn't in artist order:( mind you, it had taken me about 4 weeks of 2 hours typing a day to get all these things typed up! Stupidly, I did them all in open office writer, and not in excel :damn: Is anyone out there able to help me on this? maybe chuck them in to a copy of KSLC and alpha arrange them and send them over to me? I am waaaaay to poor atm to pay for KSLC as one of my American DJ Mystics packed up so sending it off to get fixed!! many thanks if you can sort it! BIG Fish Discos Link to post Share on other sites

Providing its always the the same order, ie artist then title, or title then artist. If this is mixed around, you'll have to manually fix it first. Email me (dj@dancesoundsdisco.co.uk) the file, and I'll see what I can do. I'll return it in spreadsheet format. I'll essentially export the file from Open Office Writer as plain text, try to find a common delimiter (tab/more than one space/dash etc) and change to csv for import into Open Office Calc, finally exporting back to you.

Jason Was going to suggest select-all, copy, and then in Spreadsheet, select Edit-> Paste Special, which should give you some options..
