I wrote a specialized import filter two years ago. It worked nicely and since then I've been working with the references that I imported back then.

I would now like to important new references that are in the same format. I prepared everything according to the careful notes I made two years ago. When I try to import from the file all I get is "Bookends - No references were imported".

I have vague memories that I had to debug the import filter when I first created it, but I don't remember how and I can't find anything about it in the manual. Is there maybe a log file somewhere that I can look at to get an idea of what's going wrong?

Thanks,

No log, but you can build your own dummy data source in a text editor, starting with only a few fields, and import from the clipboard. Get the simplest version to work then see what happens as you add more complexity to the data and the filter's tagged fields.

Thanks Jon. I've got the problem fixed now.
