You could use something else to track time on your phone or palm and then import it in Fanurio.

Currently, it is only possible to import time from another instance of Fanurio but we want to improve it to import time from any application that can export its time to a .csv file.

What do you think, does this sound like a usable solution?

Thank you for your quick response.

Yes, as I decide what software to purchase for billing this is a deciding factor, I do not always have a laptop with me but always have a phone or palm.

Thanks again,
Miccal

Not yet but would you like to be notified if we release such an extension?

I would also like to chime in with a request for an iPhone app. As a freelancer it is unusual that I am at the same computer all day–an iPhone version would really make your software SUPER useful.

Thanks for your consideration.

I don’t know if it works all the time in Windows but it does in Java.

I’ve just entered some Unix-like paths in Windows Explorer and they work. Of course, they are first converted to Windows-style .

Ah, I see.

As an aside – and feel free to remove this post since it’s not relevant to most people – does the UNIX syntax always work in windows? I do come from a UNIX background (Solaris and Linux primarily), and just assumed that it wouldn’t work in a Windows environment…

You’re welcome .

You can also use the Windows syntax but the slash characters must be escaped (doubled) like this:
\\\\C2\\MYUSERNAME\\AppData\\Roaming…

I find the other syntax (Unix-style) to be more readable.

Anyway, I’m glad it works. If you have any other questions, I’ll be here to help you.

Hi Nicu,

Thanks for the prompt reply – and the solution to my problem.

I had used the syntax windows uses for the location of the data directory, i.e. “\\C2\MYUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming…” etc. This was copied and pasted from the windows location bar when I browsed to the folder through the network, so I didn’t bother trying the syntax from your instructions – I actually thought it was an error on your part when writing the instructions – I guess my arrogance was my downfall here, lol.

As soon as I noticed you were using “//C2/MYUSERNAME/…” and changed mine to match, I was all set. Looks to be working now.

Thanks again for the fast and informative reply. I couldn’t have asked for better help!

Cheers,
Cameron
