(Archived) QUESTION: Importing TreeDB to EverNote ?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello Members:

 

I have 1,400+ notes in my TreeDB PIM.

 

QUESTION: Is there any elegant way to import these notes into EverNote without having to manually copy & paste each note into EN?

 

Thanks much in advance for a prompt and hopefully detailed response.  ;)

Hi. As I recall, TreePad can export as .html, right? In that case, you just export as .html and then drag those files into Evernote. I say "just," but depending on images/attachments/etc. this might be easier said than done. Maybe someone else has a better suggestion, but this is what I would try.

Hi Chris:

 

Thank you for taking a stab at it.

Are by chance you confusing TREEPAD for TREEDB?

 

In the effort to answer my own question and be helpful to the EN forum...

 

I searched Google for TreeDB's export formats and found the following:

Doc, RTF, HTML, TXT, ePub mobile book, Folder structure, Mozilla Firefox Extension (.xpi), Google Chrome extension

 

I also searched Google for EverNote import formats and found some good articles:

Anyway, it seems I have a formidible task before me.  ;)

 

I think I'll go country western dancing instead of importing this evening!

 

Positively,

I see my mistake now. I have not used TreeDB... Well, my advice about .html still stands. .rtf and .txt would work well, too. The problem isn't going to be with text (you'll figure that out) but with organizational schemes, file names, and any multimedia beyond text. Without a one-step import solution (I haven't seen anyone mention such a thing), it will require some work. 

 

Square dancing is the best solution. Hopefully, by the time you get back, some other forum members with experience doing this will have posted. At any rate, the links you gathered together will surely help other users. Thanks!
