Bug Description
The ZionWorx (CSV) importer in the song import wizard instructs the user:
"First convert your ZionWorx database to a CSV text file, as explained in the User Manual.", where <User Manual> is a link to this URL [1].
General info about the ZionWorx importer (including which fields it imports) is contained in the ZionWorxImport class docstring [2]. Information about using TdbDataX is also in the wiki [3].
The user must take these steps to convert their ZionWorx database into a CSV file:
1. Download tdbdatax "TurboDB Data Exchange" from dataWeb [4].
* Windows: tdbdataX.zip
* Linux: tdbdatax.tar.gz
* Mac: find a Windows/Linux computer (NB ZionWorx is a windows-only application)
2. Extract the single executable and copy it into the ZionWorx database directory (which contains MainTable.dat)
* default on Win 7/Vista: C:\ProgramData\
* default on Win XP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\ZionWorx\
3. Open a command-line/shell in the ZionWorz database directory, and run this command:
$ tdbdatax MainTable.dat songstable.csv -fsdf -s, -qd
