Thank you for the article.

You actually can export from Roboform into HTML, they just hide it well.

If you go into the passcard editor and choose File > Print List, this will create a formatted list of username/passwords and URLs. Choose Columns:1 and the check box to export the full URL. Once the file is generated, click Save. It will create an HTML file (but with a .htm extension).

Open Keepass, choose File > Import > Roboform HTML passcards. Choose *AllFiles from the Type drop down.

Verified with Keepass 2.09 and Roboform 6.9.96.

@ Ashwani, i know what you ran into with exporting Roboform Data. i had the same troubles at first then i stumbled upon the PassCrypt Help file when in the PassCrypt “Import” area.

to sum up: 1) go into “edit a Passcard”
2) enter master password (if you have one)
3) select “Passcard” and then “Print List” from the drop-down

Thanks for this post. It led me most of the way there, but there were a few variations in my experience, since it seems that my version of Keepassx did not offer to option to import from a csv. I followed these steps after getting the Roboform data into a CSV:

* In csved, I deleted all but the Description, Username, Password, url and notes columns and keep the column names.
* In a text editor, in the top row, which now contains the column names, change “Description” to “Title” and “Notes” to “Comment”
* Use cvs2xml (http://www.a7soft.com/csv2xml.zip) to convert the cvs to xml
* Import the resulting xml into Keepassx

Comment on Windows Update Broke my PC by jeff

I thought we had a bad stick of RAM or the OS was flaking out, but the issue was finally resolved when I uninstalled some HP software in Add/Remove Programs. Very frustrating, but I think everything is going to be okay now.

Thanks for all the posts.

If you’d rather not download another program and have something that handles RegEx Search & Replace you can use this regex on your csv file:
(“[^"]*”,”[^"]*”,”[^"]+”)(,”[^"]*”)(,”[^"]*”)
Replace with: \1\3\2

This should get everything unless you have a ” in one of your fields in which case that one won’t get swapped around.

Comment on KeePassX: Open URL Function in Ubuntu Linux by Chris Koester

Rich: Unfortunately, CTRL+U only opens the URL specified. It does not automatically fill the passwords for you.

To fill the username and password fields, press CTRL+V. You can see all of the available options by right clicking on any of your saved credentials.
