Printing the CHIRP frequency list
With the frequency list displayed on your computer 
     Select: FILE / EXPORT 
     Select the Location where file is to be saved 
     Select: .CSV format and SAVE 
You can now alter the appearance and print the .CSV file.

The above is a quote taken directly from the chirp programming guide found on the miklor website. These are the instructions I tried to use to create the CSV file for printing. my OS is Windows Vista running on my laptop. Everything about chirp seems to be running perfectly except for that one function.
I would also like to take this opportunity to hopefully put a bug in someone's ear that might be reading this post to develop what is necessary to operate chirp on a smartphone to be able to easily reprogram a radio while out in the field.

Hi Gary
 
I don't think you can convert the image file to CSV.  I think the CSV file can only be created by the File/Export option.  This sends out the frequency information, which is most of what you'd want, but is not a conversion of the entire image file.
 
Could you step us through what you actually did to attempt to create your CSV file?  I'll try it on CHIRP here.
 
Could you also confirm your operating system?  (I'm using Windows 7.)

Hi Dave, thanks for responding. I'm afraid I didn't make myself quite as clear as I should have. I read somewhere that you can convert the image to a CSV file in order to print out a hard copy of what is in the memories. that is what I was trying to do. I did run a Windows Search for the CSV file and it came up empty so I don't know what is happening to it.

I assume you used File/Export, then selected a name at the "Save As" pop-up and clicked "Save".
 
That doesn't actually create the CSV file.  It causes an "Export To File" pop-up to open.  The file will be created after you select the channels you want and then hit "OK".
 
Is that possibly what's happening to you?  Failing that, using Windows' file search should allow you to find the CSV file.

Subject: [chirp_users] Csv files

I just saved my current chirp image as a CSV file to my Documents folder. Upon examining that folder I found all my other image saves, but alas, no CSV file. I tried to save 3 more times but no joy. anybody have any ideas where this might be going? I am running Windows Vista on a laptop.
