I am looking for a way to convert Party Poker hands into Boss Media hands as well as a way to convert notes on Party Poker players into notes for Boss Media players.
I just recently started playing on Boss Media. I came to the site after HEM had native support for importing Boss Media hands. However, I do have a bunch of "Party Poker" hands that I would like to convert. One of my friends is a regular on Boss Media and has a large database of hands. He exported these hands for me and I now have a bunch of these "Party Poker" hands. I would like to import them as Boss Media hands. He also exported all of his notes, so I have a file: "ExportedNotes.HMNotes" which has notes on "Party Poker" players which I would like to use on the Boss Media players once I have imported the converted hands.
I believe that converting the Party Poker hands should not be a problem. Here is what I plan to do:
1. Create a new second HEM database.
2. Import all of the Party hands into this database.
3. Do the following within pgAdmin to convert the hands to Boss Media. (http://forums.holdemmanager.com/110272-post22.html)
4. Export all hands from the second HEM database.
5. Import these recent exported hands into my main HEM database.
6. Delete the secondary temporary database.
I think that should work fine. I already have some Boss Media hands in my main database. Will the above create any duplicate players?
I also want to convert the notes I have so they can be applied to these Boss Media players. I am little uncertain about how to do this. I imagine it would require something similar, such as a find and replace, but I'm not sure. How can I convert the notes to correspond with the correct Boss Media player?
