iSale express offers users the ability to export their
auctions for backup or transferral to another com-
puter. Complete auction files or CSV index files can
be exported and imported into iSale express.
Importing Your Auctions From “My eBay“
iSale express was designed to create, submit and track auctions.
The current version of the software does not support “synchroni-
zation“ with your eBay account to track auctions you created
manually through the eBay website.
Import and Export Using Auction Files
Single auctions can be imported and exported in iSale express’s
own format. This is especially handy when you need to send an
auction to a friend.

click Save.
The file can be sent to someone else or stored as a backup.
To import an iSale auction file:
‣ Locate the auction file in the Finder
‣ Double-click the auction file
The auction will appear as a new draft in iSale express.
Import and Export Data From a CSV File
iSale express can export any of your auctions into a spreadsheet
granting you the ability to create individual statistics, when using
external databases like FileMaker, or to track sales information in
Excel. You can also use this as a text backup of your auction and
easily re-import it at a later time.

ing:
