@ 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

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.

Hi,

Your suggestion works correctly & opens a new tab in FireFox. I get i.e. a Windows Live login screen (hotmail), but
the Windows Live ID is not filled in nor is the password.

Any idea as to how to get these fields filled in?

Regards,

Rich
