1. Re: keyword file format with {synonyms} is too finicky
john beardsworth Nov 14, 2012 7:41 AM (in response to nahcr)You're right - the format isn't very helpful. There's no simple way that you're overlooking, though an Excel macro could simplify converting a format based on spreadsheet columns to one with extra rows.

2. Re: keyword file format with {synonyms} is too finicky
nahcr Nov 14, 2012 10:00 AM (in response to john beardsworth)the problem was not so much converting from columns to rows which can be done using sequence numbers and copying and deleting as needed. the problem is in moving the synonyms so that there are not duplicate tabs between the last keyword and the synonyms. If i understand correctly the synonyms have to be on the same line as the last subkeyword and with only one tab between keyword and synonyms. i wrote some formulas that did this but it was only a partially automated method and very messy.
As you say, the format is a poor one.
