Title: WeatherCat Export not working?
Post by: etaggart on December 10, 2017, 09:03:57 PM
Trying to export data to a CSV file.  Using the export option under tools, I'm only getting date & conditions, regardless of the time period that I choose.   ???

I just make a quick check and my copy of WeatherCat is exporting correctly.  What does the preview of the export look like?   Something else to check is to make sure that the data looks okay in the data viewer/editor tool (under the Tools) menu.

Let us know if that helps you uncover the cause of the mysterious missing data.

Cheers, Edouard

Thanks.   That clip was from the preview.   I?m running the latest copy of wcat.   There are no options to include more data in the export dialog box.  Just date ranges and Tab delimited   I?ve tried different ranges with Tab delimited checked and not, but I?m only getting date and conditions, no other fields..

Data looks good under edit data, all the additional fields are there.

Okay, you've got me stumped as well.  I think you'll need to get in touch with WeatherCat technical support on this one.  Instructions on how to do that can be found on this web-page:

Turns out the problem was that my weather station had to be connected and communicating with WeatherCat in order for the export to work..  All set now.  Thanks!
