[Avid-L2] Help getting an EDL into a spreadsheet

 

Hi

I am looking for a way to get the information from an EDL from AVID 6 into a spreadsheet - probably numbers or google docs.

I've tried different ways - I think that the CMX3600 contains the information that I need - except duration of the clips.
I can only export is an EDL, and then change the .edl to .txt, but when I try to import it into the spreadsheet, then I have no control of how it looks - the information only appears in one collumn.

I've read that google docs accepts .csv (comma separated), but I don't know how to convert the EDL, if it is possible.
Perhaps Excel is the way, but I haven't got it...-yet. The reason I'm talking about google docs is because it is easy to share.

Basicly I'm just very lacy and have to manage hundreds of VFX-shots - reel, timecode, duration etc, and I'm trying to make it easy for my self.
So if any of you can point me in the right direction or have a great solution, I will be greatfull.

Cheers
