Synchronize countries,places, etc. between two logbooks

[rene]

I have written a little program to help people that maintain two or more logbooks (it's my case...) that smartly synchronizes some information between a master logbook and a slave one.

The involved tables are : Country City Place Shop Trip

The program does not delete rows that are not in the master logbook. It adds only rows that are not in the slave one or updates older rows.
The algorithm is based on the UUID and Updated columns and is fair with table IDs.

You can download the binary here : http://divinglog-extensions.googlecode. ... ogBook.exe

It requires the Microsoft Framework .NET 4.

Please backup you logbooks before trying this program.

Here is an example:

Hi,

AndyDragon has kindly provided storage space to host applications Click-Once (with simplified installation and auto update). Thank you to him!

So, you can find the most up-to-date version of SyncLogbook here : http://www.opencircuitscuba.com/downloa ... ncLogbook/

I will continue to upload a zip at google code: http://code.google.com/p/divinglog-exte ... downloads/

Rene,

Brilliant work. Quick question: can this also handle synchronizing the equipment, buddies and marine life? I plan to manage both my and my wife's divelogs and it seems easiest to keep all of those master data tables synchronized as well.

Thanks!

Hi David

I've answered your email, but if anyone else has this problem, you can use the "Diving Log" import function to transfer any data between logbook files. It's not an automatic process, but you have more control what you want to transfer.

Kind regards,
Sven

Have you made any updates to this script.

Can this script be used to copy dive sites from one logbook to a second logbook file?
