Hi Judd, I was exporting and importing from the same version -> 0.99.9.10 The Problem was/is that you can export to *.txt, but there is no radio button to choose *.txt as an import format. There the floating point error comes into the game... The import of *.csv was awfull! After pointing on the *.csv file I was asked if I like to import this contact or all contacts - thats smart. Unfortunately eveen if I was pushing 'import all' the dialog came back... The outcome of the import was not good. Last names haven't been in the appropriate field, sometimes there was a contact with nothing in and so on. At the end I copied every detail end every contact by hand from the *.txt into jpilot. jpilot itself started to run after I deleted (renamed) .jpilot in my home folder.
