Data Files ConversionProgram Version: 5.5My Daily Planner requires a set of plain text (.txt) and rich text (.rtf) files for it to function properly. These files are referred to as the data files. Due to the changes made to My Daily Planner features, the data files have changed as well. This release (v5.5) requires some minor and major modifications to existing data files if they are to be used with this release.Warning: Please backup the data files for your Tasks, Notes, Meetings and Subjects to a separate folder before continuing.Minor Modifications:Some of the previously rich text files have now been changed to plain text files.If upgrading from My Daily Planner v5.2.x to v5.5 the following needs to be done to use your current data files.Open the following data files in WordPad and save as follows (changes are in bold):My Daily Planner Tasks Data.rtf -> My Daily Planner Tasks Data.txtMy Daily Planner Appointments Data.rtf -> My Daily Planner Meetings Data.txtMy Daily Planner Subjects.rtf -> My Daily Planner Subjects.txtMajor Modification:The Meetings section of My Daily Planner has undergone a major functionality increase. In turn there is more data that needs to be saved to the associated data file. There are two options available to address this issue.Option 1) SimplestBackup the original Meetings file to a different location or rename it. Then, with a new file of the correct name, open My Daily Planner to the Meetings Section and reenter the data. Notice that there are now more options for details about the Meeting. Once completed click the Save button and then delete the original backup file.Option 2) More DifficultOpen the Meetings data file in WordPad. There are now more options for details about each Meeting available, and thus spaces need to be added to the file. Three (3) spaces need to be added after each Meeting entry.Example:Original:Meeting 1Meeting 2After Modification:Meeting1Meeting 2
