Pocket Query to a text file

[+Web-ling]

Is there any way to export the results of a pocket query to a text file that could be imported into another program, like an Access database?

Web-ling does an Excel worksheet do anything like you want? Geobuddy will open the pocket query and you can save it as a comma-separated value file for Microsoft Excel.

If Geobuddy can export the file to comma-delimited, you can import it into Access.

I opened the .loc file with geobuddy, then exported it as a quoted comma-separated .csv file. I tried to pull the .csv file directly into Access, but got some errors, so I pulled it into Excel first, then imported it into Access from there. Kind of a round-about process, but it got me the data I wanted. I'll probably write some macros later to automate the process.
