Supported Data Formats

Top  Previous  Next

FollowUpExpert can import subscriber information (email addresses, names etc.) from text files. It supports the following formats:

 

CSV (Comma-Separated Values) files,
Tab-delimited files.

 

Here is how a CSV file may look like:

 

Email Address,Name,City,Phone

john@xxxxx.com,John Doe,Smalltown,74848934

tim@yyyy.com,Tim Public,Blackville,34849344

 

And here's a sample tab-delimited file:

 

Email Address        Name        City        Phone

john@xxxxx.com        John Doe        Smalltown        74848934

tim@yyyy.com        Tim Public        Blackville        34849344

 

Most applications are capable of exchanging data in both of these formats.

 

For instance, Microsoft Excel lets you save any sheet either as a tab-delimited or a CSV file. Click “File”, “Save As” and select the right format using the “Save as type” drop-down list. (Remember to close Excel before importing the file into FollowUpExpert.)

 

As far as exporting goes, FollowUpExpert supports tab-delimited files. Again, most applications should have no problems importing from this format.
