    Peeron Exporting —Steve Burge
   Is there any way of exporting individual Peeron inventories and/or (more importantly for me), your MyParts list as a file you can then load into Parts Catalog? Steve (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.db.inv)
   
        Re: Peeron Exporting —Dan Boger
     (...) Currently there isn't a way, but it is something we plan to implement, hopefully in the near future. Dan (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.db.inv)

        Re: Peeron Exporting —Don Heyse
     (...) This probably isn't even close to what you're looking for, but on Windows ldglite supports dragging the text from a Peeron inventory page and dropping it into the LEDIT mode window. Then you can save it as a .LDR file. While that may not be (...) (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.db.inv)

         Re: Peeron Exporting —Don Heyse
     (...) Oh yeah, I forgot to mention it's a bit slow. I think it's on my todo list to optimize it a bit. (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.db.inv)
    
         Re: Peeron Exporting —Steve Burge
     (...) I don't think the problem is at your end, it's just the load the web page (hurrah for broadband), drag the text, save the file, import the file and repeat for all 400 or so of my sets...

          Re: Peeron Exporting —Steve Burge
       (...) Cool, very cool. Thanks a lot. But Parts Catalog won't read the file, without a lot of jiggery-pokery being done to it. The .PRN format for Parts Catalog expects a bag-number entry sandwiched between part number and color, it also expects two (...) (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.inv)
      
           Re: Peeron Exporting —Dan Boger
       (...) doh, I forgot about the bag column! And while I believe Peeron does get to define the PRN format, no reason why not to change the line endings to something more commonly used. Try again now? (...) I never tried reading a file in PC - does it (...) (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.inv)

       (...) No, it probably doesn't mind, I thought I'd include it for clarity though. Steve (21 years ago, 27-Aug-03, to lugnet.inv)
     
          Re: Peeron Exporting —Christian Allred
      Thank you very much for a VERY useful feature. I noticed just now though that it doesn't include extra parts that you've added via the My Parts interface; it only includes part totals for sets. For example, I have Minstorms 1.5 and 2.0, plus an (...) (21 years ago, 28-Aug-03, to lugnet.inv)
