Are you running Vista 64 bit? Vista places any 32 bit program in a separate folder, which I can recall right now. If you are running 64 bit OS let me know; you will need additional instructions or the click to enlarge photos will not work.

But whether it is a 32 bit or 64 bit, you should be able to locate the program by clicking on "Start", then "All Programs", and the group folder will be listed as "GoldenSection Reader". Hover your mouse over it, and a window will open; right click on "GoldenSection Reader" then hover your cursor over "Send To"  and click "Desktop (Create Shortcut)".

Do you use OpenOffice on your Mac? I know OpenOffice is available for Linux ( I have several Linux computers) and windoz machine or three... and checking on the OpenOffice web site it is also for Mac. I'm just downloading the recipes at the moment but if it is straight forward database that can be exported perhaps I can port it to OpenOffice.

John;

It is not the typical data base such as a dbf file. GS Reader stores data (information) in various textual and graphical structure, which you can copy for various sources and paste it into the program. You then can access that information using the typical tree format, such as what is used to read folders and files on a hard drive.

If your plan works, let me know.

Hab,

Not having much luck at the moment. Doesn't seem to be any way to export the .gso to a conventional database format.

I'll keep looking...

Thanks for the advice guys, this is where I have to admit I don't know what I have here, a 64 bit or a 32 ?????
I did check the "all programs" and it isn't there, this leads me to beleive I may not have sucessfully down loaded the information.

If this is your first time downloading, did you download both programs; Golden Section Reader and Member's Recipe and Photos? If not you must download Golden Section Reader. At the end of installation you should get a confirmation that the program installed correctly.

Since you are using Vista, it a good chance it may be 64 bit. So once Golden Section Reader is installed you may not be able to find the recipe files. It seems that 32 bit programs such as the Reader are automatically redirected and installed in a different folder. While the recipe and photo files are installed in another. This is a quote from Smokin Soon that was posted on another thread:

Just a heads up to Vista 64 bit users, the gso reader installs itself in c:\program files [x86]\GSO Reader. When you install the recipe file it goes to c:\program files\GSO Reader. When you hit file open, you wont see
the file until you point it in the right direction.

ThanX Big JohnT and Squirt! Aware of these but swore off when I retired (used to be a network administrator but am now a fisherman! Life is a lot simpler now.) I may go ahead and try to download the data and import into existing database software I own but probably not....the King bite is doing well....and besides, I've talked my PC daughter downline into downloading the files so I can hygrade from them!!

Kummok;

I don't believe you can convert the information stored in a GSO file into a database such as dbf. A GSO file stores the information in text and graphics files, and uses a structural tree to navigate.

Here is a link to their website so you can get a better understanding of what type of database it is.
